I don't agree with the change in aligned_alloc requirements that would 
undefine its behavior when 'alignment' is not a fundamental or an extended 
alignment value. There are cases in which one needs memory aligned at values 
that are not specific to the C++ implementation but come from hardware or 
the OS, determined at runtime, such as the page size, cache line size, 
sector size.
