Small additional note: One can determine the size and alignment *without*
always resorting to trial execution. Autoconf does this by an
ingenious "evaluation by compilation" technique in case of cross-compilation,
see the implementation of AC_CHECK_SIZEOF and AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF.

To be honest, I don't understand that point...
