| Subject: | strawberry perl 5.8.9 with mingw.org gcc 3.4.5 alloca broken |
Using strawberry perl 5.8.9 with its included mingw.org gcc 3.4.5,
alloca's return value is being used as a memory block, when alloca
really has a void return type. The same problem was in Cygwin, in RT
80217. For Strawberry Perl 5.8.9, "# define _alloca(size)
__builtin_alloca(size)" fixed the problem just like in Cygwin. I don't
know when to conditionally enable __builtin_alloca for strawberry Perls,
or what version number of GCC or other macro to use as the conditional.
