Unrelated question, but is this correct?

template <std::size_t alignment_>
struct aligned_storage_imp<std::size_t(-1), alignment_>
{
    union data_t
    {
        char buf[1];
        ::boost::detail::max_align align_;
    } data_;
    void* address() const { return const_cast<aligned_storage_imp*>(this); }
};

size_t(-1) is a special value for the alignment, not for the size parameter?
