[CELT-dev] Porting CELt to the C5505

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi Tony,

What do you mean by "create an alloca.h" doesn't the compiler have one? 
If not, then you might as well create a definition for the VARDECL() and 
ALLOC() macros (see stack_alloc.h). I would be interested in merging bac 
the changes. The best way to do that is to send a patch. Ideally, the 
arch-dependent changes should be clearly separated from the 
arch-dependent code (within #ifdef or separate file).

Cheers,

	Jean-Marc
