commit    bd9dfac8b121e67d7dd4a9bfecb1474fe6811927

    Further fix extended alignment for older g++.
    
    Commit 6ceef9408 was still one brick shy of a load, because it caused
    any usage at all of PGIOAlignedBlock or PGAlignedXLogBlock to fail
    under older g++.  Notably, this broke "headerscheck --cplusplus".
    We can permit references to these structs as abstract structs though;
    only actual declaration of such a variable needs to be forbidden.
