In vect-alias-check-1.c we unroll the inner loop and then vectorise the stores at a[c + 1][b]. Since the access has no guaranteed alignemnt, we need a realignment mechanism or support for unaligned accesses in order to vectorise.
In vect-alias-check-18.c we use a reverse access and so need permute support in order to vectorise. I'm not really sure when this part of the testsuite prefers { xfail { ! foo } } and when it prefers { target foo }. xfail seems like the most common choice for the alignment restriction, whereas vect_int and vect_perm are mostly dg-require-effective-target style features, so I went with that combination. Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, powerpc64-linux-gnu (Power 7) and sparc-sun-solaris2.11. OK to install?
