Alignas broken when used with constexpr array data member for structure

[Alec Teal]

So I can't reproduce this via godbolt

For example both the example given and:

classX {
private:
staticconstexprintx = 5;
staticconstexprinty = 4;
public:
structalignas(y) S {
chardata[x];
};
}; BOTH give errors for me - I'm just going to leave it at this point. 
It's obviously fixed whatever it was. Thanks for your time. Alec
