Fails to build for Android: cannot convert argument of incomplete type 'void *' to 'std::align_val_t' for 2nd argument

Trying to build boost-container 1.69.0 for Android with the current AOSP master toolchain fails:

Not sure why it would think of void* as an incomplete type... Haven't looked into it a lot, but so far it looks like it may be a toolchain bug.
