I don't see how this (or 8670, or the other one) is an enhancement 
request.  Users are absolutely allowed to make allocators that 
enforce only the alignment of the type they are instantiated on, 
and string is certainly using the wrong kind of allocator.

It's a fairly minor bug, but seems to me clearly a bug.
