This has been reported before, and I posted a patch against 1.0.3a for it:
    http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs-bugs/1998-Jun/0272.html
(though a search for 'alloc' in the subject line wouldn't turn it up,
unfortunately).  Jeffrey Law informed me that this has been fixed via
another mechanism in the development tree (and thus in egcs-1.1).
