 We've been discussing this issue programs that use alloca(3) should use
 the compiler-supplied version not the libc supplied one. I've added a warning
 about uses of alloca(3) from libc so in current, programs that use the libc
 alloca(3) will get a warning. I've also updated the man page for alloca(3).
