It will probably have a substantial performance impact, because you will need
call call malloc a lot more as you cannot include NICKLEN in the structures
etc..., and also because the compiler cannot perform constant expression
evaluation. You would probably want to profile this and confirm it is a
worthwhile change. Also, it could be tricky if the feature settings are changed
at runtime and might result in segfaults unless a lot of extra checks get added,
so it may be that there is not a lot of benefit compared to the cost.
