But it seems a bit strange to me to mark aligned allocation function tests as unsupported based on the *architecture* - instead I would have expected it to be marked as unsupported based on specific OS versions that do not implement the feature yet.

As of today z/OS does not support aligned allocation.  Once it is supported we will be able to say it is only supported in z/OS X.Y and above.  The tag "s390-zos" is more than an architecture tag.  It is more of an OS tag.  We have zLinux on s390 as well.  The s390-zos tag only covers z/OS, not zLinux.  We can change that name if it helps clarify some confusion.
