   Determine the alignment of a structure slot (field) of a given type,
   at compile time.  Note that the result depends on the ABI.
   This is the same as alignof (TYPE) and _Alignof (TYPE), defined in
   <stdalign.h> if __alignof_is_defined is 1.
   Note: The result cannot be used as a value for an 'enum' constant,
   due to bugs in HP-UX 10.20 cc and AIX 3.2.5 xlc.  */

/* alignof_type (TYPE)
   Determine the good alignment of an object of the given type at compile time.
   Note that this is not necessarily the same as alignof_slot(type).
   For example, with GNU C on x86 platforms: alignof_type(double) = 8, but
   - when -malign-double is not specified:  alignof_slot(double) = 4,
   - when -malign-double is specified:      alignof_slot(double) = 8.
   Note: The result cannot be used as a value for an 'enum' constant,
   due to bugs in HP-UX 10.20 cc and AIX 3.2.5 xlc.  */
