[Bug c++/15795] No way to teach operator new anything about alignment requirements

if the glibc folks are unwilling to support a feature of the cpu, so be it. The
compiler can only work around that by pessimizing all allocations.

I understand glibc's reluctance to support arbitrary alignments, but alignments
imposed by the CPU are different.  Those are system requirements, and glibc is
a system library, which should support them.  BTW, there are many things in glibc
that are outside the C standard.
