>Description:
GCC don't produces alloca builtin function if the file is just compiled with switch "gcc -c".

#define alloca(x)	__builtin_alloca(x)

GCC will produce an external "_alloca" symbol.
I think this should be fixed.
whereas gcc test.c will work and don't produces external symbol. (symbol into cygwin.dll or other libc libraries)

gcc -c test.c

#define alloca(x)	__builtin_alloca(x)

unsigned int m() {
	void * n=alloca(16);
}
