Trying to summarize the discussion here for the author:

1. Please add a `<stdalign.h>` header to libc++ that does `#include_next 
<stdalign.h>` and then defines both `__alignof_is_defined` and 
`__alignas_is_defined`.
2. Please re-add a test checking for `__alignof_is_defined`, but guard it with 
`#if defined(_LIBCPP_VER)` so that we only test it on libc++ (since technically 
the Standard doesn't require it, even if it's a defect).
3. Please re-run `libcxx/utils/generate_header_tests.py` and make sure that 
creates no diff.

However, http://eel.is/c++draft/depr.stdalign.h.syn#1 says:

> The contents of the C++ header <stdalign.h> are the same as the C standard 
> library header <stdalign.h>, with the following changes: The header

I think the most efficient way of ensuring that is to use `#include_next`, 
which requires a C++ friendly `<stdalign.h>` on the platform.

Generally speaking, I'm not in favour of trying to work around platforms that 
do not provide C++ friendly headers. If we're trying to make C++ work on those 
platforms, they need to minimally provide C++ friendly headers.
