--- Comment #10 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
__BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT__ has nothing to do with alignment of malloc returned
memory.
The union I've mentioned is a reasonable guess (something actually mandated by
the standard), glibc right now guarantees 2 * sizeof (void *) (which is wrong
for ppc32). For malloc alignment, we've added an attribute for that, but glibc
maintainers haven't added it to their headers :( and obviously other libcs
neither.
