I'd guess the carbon will be slightly more forgiving, when ridden over long distances. Its not a difference you'd expect to imediatly feel with a quality alu frame, up against a stiff carbon one though. Plus it'll be lighter. Get the carbon.
If the situation regarding availibility was reversed. I'd be pretty happy with the alu. I cant imagine there's much in it.
