Fine.  Change alloca to any other function and we've got the
same problem, and you can no longer depend on the semantics of
alloca returning nonzero.

Since you seem to understand the problem and the solution, would you care to propose a patch? This is a pretty serious wrong-code regression, that I would like to get fixed before 4.0.1. 

It's on my list.  What's the timeframe for getting something into
4.0.1?

I've held up the release on account of this PR, so, on the one hand, there's no risk of shipping before this is fixed; on the other hand, it's one of just a few PRs in the way, so sooner is better.
