Hello,
we want to add aligned versions of allocation functions to 3.7:
https://bugs.python.org/issue18835
C11 has aligned_alloc().
Linux, BSD, OSX, MSVC, Android all have either posix_memalign() or _aligned_malloc().
Cygwin apparently has posix_memalign().
MinGW has:
https://github.com/Alexpux/mingw-w64/blob/master/mingw-w64-crt/misc/mingw-aligned-malloc.c
Victor wrote a patch and would like to avoid adding a (probably unnecessary) emulation function. I agree with that.
So if any platform does not have some form of aligned_alloc(), please speak up.
