I tried moving it after 'sink' and that didn't help. Moving it next to 
warn_restrict works for this test but breaks 2 others that currently 
"work" by accident (+ one where the message changes between "unbounded" 
and "too large", it isn't clear what the difference is between those 
messages).

My suggestion, in addition to the original patch, is

 	* gcc.dg/Walloca-13.c: Xfail.

--- Walloca-13.c	(revision 271742)
+++ Walloca-13.c	(working copy)

  void f (void*);

  void g (int *p, int *q)
  {
    __SIZE_TYPE__ n = (__SIZE_TYPE__)(p - q);
    if (n < 100)
-    f (__builtin_alloca (n));
+    f (__builtin_alloca (n)); // { dg-bogus "may be too large due to conversion" "" { xfail { *-*-* } } }
  }

Is that ok?
