The documentation for the GC.malloc family of functions mentions
that they return "an aligned block of managed memory from the
garbage collector" without any further specification about what
that level of alignment is supposed to be.
What do we actually want to guarantee here? "Sufficient for any
built-in type"?
Note that my question is not about how the current implementation
behaves, but about what the actual API guarantee should be.
