Yes, I know... but remember the prototype code I send you...
The idea is to use the stack for such temporary allocations since it has
significant advantages over memory from the heap, including:
Isn't that what alloca() is for? (Ignoring the simple fact that alloca()
is actually horribly broken since it never tells you if it's failed, just
lets you corrupt your stack when you ask for too much memory.)
