Make that 1.6.1 :-)

@saghul IIUC, here the call to _aligned_malloc would be replaced (by default) by a call to malloc, is it intentional and what is the impact of such a change?

[saghul]

That was reviewed back in the day and Bert pointed out that plain malloc
provided the necessary alignment in that case, that's why we dropped it.

@saghul Sounds good, thank you for the clarification!

[misterdjules]

@saghul One question just to make sure I don't leave any stone unturned, otherwise that looks good. Will land asap unless the answer to that question means we need to change something.

Thank you once again @saghul 👍
