+#include <alloca.h>

This header is not present on Windows, thus breaking all the Windows buildbots. Perhaps it should be wrapped in an AIX-specific #ifdef?

Oh really? Portability is complex :-) I only tested on Linux, but I expected this header to be part of the C standard...

I have added HAVEALLOCAH to configure:

Cool, thanks.
