Can anyone explain the use of ptrdiff_t instead of size_t (he has typedef'd "size" for ptrdiff_t) The macros are wrapping _Alignof and sizeof both which can't return non-zero numbers I thought.

ptrdiff_t is a signed integer type - which means you can subtract these numbers without worrying about underflow
