     29    allocated on the stack, which will last until the function returns.
     30    Use of alloca should be avoided:
     31      - inside arguments of function calls - undefined behaviour,
     32      - in inline functions - the allocation may actually last until the
     33        calling function returns,
     34      - for huge N (say, N >= 65536) - you never know how large (or small)
     35        the stack is, and when the stack cannot fulfill the memory allocation
     36        request, the program just crashes.
