--- Comment #2 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
But isn't alignof (r) the alignment of the 'int' while alignof (p) is the
alignment of the pointer?!

That is, alignof(&r) should produce 64, no?  Seems to produce 8 for me.

Still your test is bougs?

Btw, alignof(*p) produces 4 as well, consistent with that for r.

I think to align the pointer you need a typedef, attribute placement doesn't
allow distinguishing between pointed-to vs. pointer type the same way
as qualifiers do.
