        <pre>Hi, the following code allocates memory for an integer variable 'a' with '5',
which is not an integral power of two. However, Clang accepts it. 

Please take a look at paragraph [4]:  
<a href="http://eel.is/c++draft/basic.align">http://eel.is/c++draft/basic.align</a>

$ cat s.cpp
void * a = new int __attribute__ ((aligned (5)))();

$ g++ -c s.cpp
s.cpp:1:48: error: requested alignment ‘5’ is not a positive power of 2
    1 | void * a = new int __attribute__ ((aligned (5)))();</pre>
