------- Comment #5 from dannysmith at users dot sourceforge dot net 2008-02-14 08:14 ------- And just think of the havoc that will be caused with old mingw32 and cygwin libs that depend on the _chkstk meaning of __alloca if you change __alloca semantics. eg there are 69 undefined references to __alloca in mingw32-gcc-4.2.1 built libgmp.a
In my opinion it is a bug that 64 bit mingw defines __alloca differently to 32 bit mingw. Danny -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35124
