--- Comment #5 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
It assumes that because the purpose of those built-ins is to implement C
_Atomic and C++ std::atomic. If you use those APIs the alignment is taken care
of n by the implementation. If you use the low-level, non-portable APIs
directly then you are responsible for getting it right.
This is just a documentation bug.
