Subject: [Fortran] Fix broken use of alloca in C interoperability testcase
Date: Mon, 25 Oct 2021 12:27:18 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <242ab49c-5047-c7fe-ee06-23210f3bbe18@codesourcery.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 300 bytes --]

This patch is for PR102910.  There's no reason why the testcase in 
question needs to use alloca, but I wasn't aware there were portability 
issues with it until I saw this issue.

I think this fix is probably obvious and will commit it tomorrow unless 
I get some feedback on it meanwhile.
