I understand you're talking about malloc because that's what our
implementation ultimately uses, but my question was on language
lawyering, on whether C++ would mandate more alignment than requested by
the caller of allocate.  If it were to do so, I wonder what the point of
specifying the alignment explicitly would be.

Thanks, here's what I'm installing in master.


x86-vxworks malloc aligns to 8 bytes like solaris

From: Alexandre Oliva <ol...@adacore.com>

Vxworks 7's malloc, like Solaris', only ensures 8-byte alignment of
returned pointers on 32-bit x86, though GCC's stddef.h defines
max_align_t with 16-byte alignment for __float128.  This patch enables
on x86-vxworks the same memory_resource workaround used for x86-solaris.

The testsuite also had a workaround, defining BAD_MAX_ALIGN_T and
xfailing the test; extend those to x86-vxworks as well, and remove the
check for char-aligned requested allocation to be aligned like
max_align_t.  With that change, the test passes on x86-vxworks; I'm
guessing that's the same reason for the test not to pass on
x86-solaris (and on x86_64-solaris -m32), so with the fix, I'm
tentatively removing the xfail.
