You cannot use alloc_align on posix_memalign, alloc_align only works for
functions that _return_ the allocated pointer (likewise alloc_size).
We should probably diagnose this based on the return value being 'int'
and not a pointer. Confirmed as diagnostic issue.
Quoting docs:
item alloc_size
@cindex @code{alloc_size} function attribute
The @code{alloc_size} attribute is used to tell the compiler that the
function return value points to memory, where the size is given by
