--- Comment #6 from DaBler <dabler at gmail dot com> ---
When I call sizeof(...) on the int type (instead of a variable), it is the
same:
typedef int TypeInt __attribute((aligned(64)));
printf("%zu %zu\n", sizeof(TypeInt), alignof(TypeInt)); // Output: 4 64
Moreover, It is not possible to use this type for a construction of arrays. In
contrast, When I call sizeof(...) on the struct type:
typedef struct {
int i;
} __attribute((aligned(64))) TypeStruct;
printf("%zu %zu\n", sizeof(TypeStruct), alignof(TypeStruct)); // Output: 64 64
Thus, I still see an inconsistency.
