+/// AlignOf - A templated class that contains an enum value representing
+///  the alignment of the template argument.  For example,
+///  AlignOf<int>::Alignment represents the alignment of type "int".  The
+///  alignment calculated is the minimum alignment, and not necessarily
+///  the "desired" alignment returned by GCC's __alignof__ (for example).  Note
+///  that because the alignment is an enum value, it can be used as a
+///  compile-time constant (e.g., for template instantiation).
