Ugh. Let the bike shedding begin. I will tell you that moral arguments
about software don't make a lot of sense to me, though.

Did you not read the part about the GCC version that claims C11
conformance but doesn't have _Alignas? Yes, that's a bug. Yes, it was
fixed. No, musl can't break compatibility with it.
If not for that, I would have gone with this version too, but that's
like saying "your code would be perfect if it did work".
Ciao,
