David Edelsohn <dje at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |dje at gcc dot gnu.org --- Comment #5 from David Edelsohn <dje at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Previously the test case was unresolved because it referenced alloca without a declaration. char *adata = (char *) alloca (n); If you want to call __builtin_alloca() because this is a testcase for GCC, which provides __builtin_alloca(), fine. You should call it directly and not alloca(). If you want to call alloca(), then you need logic for the different systems that declare alloca() in different header files. #ifdef alloca is wrong because it makes the testcase system dependent and tests different behavior.
