[git version control]

vlc | branch: master | Rémi Denis-Courmont <remi at remlab.net> | Fri Apr 10 21:15:18 2009 +0300| [4496957d9f48e1fb618e01112fee08e7a95739f9] | committer: Rémi Denis-Courmont 

Avoid alloca()

By the way, alloca() _cannot_ return NULL. It simply crashes if there
is not enough memory.
