Not to my knowledge, and I maintain the thing. We're now implementing alignment_of with the compiler's alignof (instead of library machinery) and as far as I know, alignof returns perfect answers. If you have examples otherwise, I'd like to see them.
Only what was reported for the RC: 1. For x86 and x64: std::alignment_of<std::nullptr_t>::value is 1, yet compiler aligns at 4 2. For x86: std::alignment_of<T Class::*>::value is 4, yet compiler aligns at 8 For x64: std::alignment_of<T Class::*>::value is 8, yet compiler aligns at 4 3. For x86: std::alignment_of<T (Class::*)()>::value is 4, yet compiler aligns at 8 For x64: std::alignment_of<T (Class::*)()>::value is 8, yet compiler aligns at 4 I haven't checked the RTM yet, but apparently VC12's std::alignment_of for the relevant types reported the same value that the compiler chose to align objects of those types.
