  When building on Ubuntu 22.04, gcc 12, x86-64 with -m32 and -O2, I get:

PR 29798 shows a similar error message but on Solaris.

Work around that by using string_printf.  It is a good thing to get rid
of the alloca anyway.

It should say "PR build/29798" here, so the commit script can pick it
up.

Indeed.  IMO alloca should be poisoned.
The patch looks good to me.

... we should teach that commit script to pick this up.
I don't know how to access it, though.
