If so, when the stack overflows the operating system may not detect the overflow until the program uses the array, and this module may incorrectly report a program error instead of a stack overflow. To avoid this problem, allocate only small objects on the stack; a program should be OK if it limits single allocations to a page or less. Allocate larger arrays in static storage, or on the heap (e.g., with malloc). Yes, this is a pain, but we don't know of any better solution that is portable. No attempt has been made to deal with multithreaded applications. */ #if HAVE_CONFIG_H # include #endif #ifndef __attribute__ # if __GNUC__ < 3 || __STRICT_ANSI__ # define __attribute__(x) # endif #endif #include "gettext.h" #define _(msgid) gettext (msgid) #include #ifndef ENOTSUP # define ENOTSUP EINVAL #endif #ifndef EOVERFLOW # define EOVERFLOW EINVAL #endif #include #if !
