        <pre>Attempting to compile:

using Aligned16Buffer alignas(16) = char[8];

results in:

alignas_test.cpp:1:23: error: 'alignas' attribute only applies to variables,
      data members and tag types

I don't have the standard and might not correctly interpret it if I did but
according to various reports one can google, including:

<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15788947/where-can-i-use-alignas-in-c11">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15788947/where-can-i-use-alignas-in-c11</a>

The above usage is correct. I compiled this simple test with:

clang++ -std=c++11 -c alignas_test.cpp</pre>
