It's non-standard only in the sense that it supports some "extra" features 
that aren't present in the TR, I admit users could end up using these 
features inadvertently though.  For now I just want to get the tests running 
again.  I guess in the long run I agree with you, but I'd like to hear from 
the authors of aligned_storage: it wouldn't be fair to more or less 
unilaterally deprecate their work!
