[vorbis-dev] alloca() problem with CodeWarrior

[Ben Stanley]

This problem is what autoconf was invented to solve. You write a small 
program which can detect if the compiler's implementation works 
correctly. Autoconf runs it and decides if the implementation works or 
not. If it doesn't work, well, you either refuse to compile on that 
platform or you provide some kind of alternative implementation, which 
you expect will work on every platform.
