Depends... if |alloca()| can safely be used on all platforms supported
by Mesa then this should be no problem to implement. Alternatively the
code could simply assume that the C compiler supports the C++ feature
(BTW: Is this supported in C99, too ?) that an array can be dynamically
sized at declaration (however that's less portable).
