I don't actually see a reasonable alternative that doesn't involve extra 
redundant code or a lot of refactoring. The current approach is to build up the 
argument strings then switch on ${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE} below to determine whether 
it's a GCC or Clang build.

I added a comment to explain why it works. We can remove the branch and clean 
it up when we upgrade GCC.

It seems ok - the memory region written is large enough. The function_buffer 
union is large enough at 8 bytes, it's just the data member that is too small 
at 1 byte.

-faligned-new I think is fine, since it's enabling improved behaviour that is 
part of the C++17 standard instead of masking an issue.

I don't think we should let upgrading Boost block upgrading GCC - I have a 
feeling that the Boost upgrade could be a lot of work.

We've been trying to standardise elsewhere on explicit resource release with 
trivial destructors. The argument is that implicit sequencing of non-trivial 
teardown steps is very hard to understand.

I put up a page in the wiki that documents some of the patterns in the code:

I don't feel strongly. I like those types in other languages but they don't 
seem to work as well in C++ where there isn't a convenient language construct 
to branch on the result and unpack the value.

We have to use LLVM's ErrorOr in a couple of places and IMO the code wasn't 
simpler than using an output argument.

It looks like C++17 has std::optional, which is available earlier as 
std::experimental::optional
