w_wad.cincludes<alloca.h>in order to use thealloca()function. This header does not exist when compiling using Mingw-w64 on my machine, causing a build error. Instead,alloca()is available throughstdlib.h, which includesmalloc.h.This patch replaces the
alloca()call withmalloc()/free(), which removes the need for the header file altogether and also removes the potential for a stack overflow.The README says MinGW was used to build the release; I'm curious why this issue didn't arise then too.
