Or, given
/* Define what type to use for size_t. */
if (strcmp (SIZE_TYPE, "unsigned int") == 0)
size_type_node = unsigned_type_node;
...
#define MALLOC_ABI_ALIGNMENT (2 * sizeof (### magic un-stringify SIZE_TYPE))
eh ... is there a more convenient way to access the targets size_t?
It's a target macro still ... not often used, so even
#define MALLOC_ABI_ALIGNMENT (2 * TREE_INT_CST_LOW (TYPE_SIZE_UNIT
(size_type_node)))
would probably work, but ...
