Paul Eggert 39c2fa3f4e Merge from gnulib and try to repair bad merge
This attempts to repair problems introduced by the bad merge
5491fd1098.  The easiest way for me
to fix the badly-merged gnulib files was to run
'admin/merge-gnulib', so I did that, which also imported the
following changes:
* build-aux/update-copyright, m4/gnulib.m4:
Update from gnulib, incorporating:
2015-01-15 time: port to MinGW32 3.21
2015-01-15 update-copyright: apply to self
2015-01-11 update-copyright: recognize groff's \(co marker
2015-01-27 22:24:47 -08:00

/* alloca (N) returns a pointer to N bytes of memory
allocated on the stack, which will last until the function returns.
Use of alloca should be avoided:
- inside arguments of function calls - undefined behaviour,
- in inline functions - the allocation may actually last until the
calling function returns,
- for huge N (say, N >= 65536) - you never know how large (or small)
the stack is, and when the stack cannot fulfill the memory allocation
request, the program just crashes.
