Comment:

 But that's dead code...

 {{{
 $ ag memalign
 src/ext/OpenBSD_malloc_Linux.c
 295:void *memalign(size_t boundary, size_t size);
 1992:int posix_memalign(void **memptr, size_t alignment, size_t size)
 2015:void *memalign(size_t boundary, size_t size)
 2018:   posix_memalign(&r, boundary, size);
 2025:   posix_memalign(&r, malloc_pagesize, size);
 }}}

 `memalign()` in OpenBSD_malloc_Linux.c is not used anywhere and not even
 compiled in by default.
