    I don't think it does, "git grep" says it has nothing to do with
    alignment. And according to autotests it doesn't need it.<br>

      <div>I'm not so comfortable with not not printing any other values

    </blockquote>
    That's the dilemma here: LLVM code doesn't know whether alignment
    was forced by programmer or it is default one (clang does know). The
    first approach I tried was to print all alignment values (old
    behavior) and mark forced alignment with special flag (in DIFlags).
    After that we decided that adding new flag is overkill here and we
    can use alignment value instead: if it set means it was forced,
    otherwise it is default (current behavior). I think we should stick
    with the latter one as it keeps code simpler.<br>
