Well, if we have:

omething * x;
void * y;

x = y;

if we instead write

x = (something *) y;

it is not only making compiling for C++ work, but it is also cleaning
up the C code.

And replacing the alloca()'s with malloc()/free() pairs _could_ be
useful. (1st for people without alloca() (who cares about-em anyway), and
2nd for people who are concerned about performance. I'll test if it makes
a speed difference.)

It seems David Mitchell has already written the code, so I'd like to see it.
I offer to split the patch into these different functional parts, if
anyone is
interested.

Dagdag,

Segher
