Ah sorry, at first it should be like this:
#define FNCPY_ALIGN ({void foo(); __alignof__(foo);})
And at second, the correct version returns 1 always.
Even if I pass falign-functions=4096 to gcc, and I see that functions
are aligned accordingly in elf file, the macro returns 1 anyway. So if
it doesn't work, the hardcoded '8' is the only option.
