Will be fixed in 2.7, just waiting for some server maintenance. I had
already caught this, but apparently forgot to push it.
Using alloca was originally an attempted fix at MSVC complaining about
variable length array. I added some other attempted fixes as well
without waiting for ActiveState's ppm matrix to test just the alloca
functions, so it got left in as a solution.
