The author has already made it clear they consider "memory allocation by unaligned offset into temporary char[] cast into a struct pointer" to be a valid strategy, so frankly I'm not very interested in their opinions on whether it's production ready. I've seen it on HN before, whenever this project gets mentioned. People who don't know much about C confuse it for a really cool thing you can do with C, as if it's just another legit library that you can pick up and use. It's a lot of undefined behavior. People have enough problems writing safe C as it is, and on top of this complaint about alignment and misuse of temporaries, this thing makes the problem worse in other ways too, removing the few safeguards that exist by treating everything as void* for instance.
