_alloca
Article 10/26/2022
Allocates memory on the stack. This function is *deprecated* because a more secure version is available; see:
_malloca https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/malloca?view=msvc-170 .
Mucroshaft are such irritating *FUCKS*. It has exactly the same signature as alloca. Why didn't they just upgrade the implementation instead of forcing everyone to rewrite their code??

Hi all!
Has anybody tried to build OSVM in Windows 11 via Cygwin64?
clang-8 does not work because "_alloca" cannot be found ... hmm...
So, who implements _alloca? It's not msvcrt.dll ... how to find that out?
Best, Marcel
