No C++ is needed. That function is only declared when #if
!_GLIBCXX_HAVE_ALIGNED_ALLOC
Why does autoconf test say that FreeBSD doesn't have aligned_alloc, if
it does have it?
The test is done by:
AC_CHECK_FUNCS(aligned_alloc posix_memalign memalign _aligned_malloc)
Maybe that test checks for the function using -std=c++98, so the C11
function isn't defined? Check the config.log to see what happened when
testing for that function.
If FreeBSD defines it, we need to detect that, and use the FreeBSD
version, not the static version defined in new_opa.cc
(It's possible FreeBSD has always defined it, but only GCC 7.2 gives
an error for the mismatched static/extern, but that isn't really
important -- either way we should use the OS version if it exists)
