binutils-2.17.50 build fail (alloca undefined also in bfd/vms-hdr.c, bfd/xsym.c)

[anirkko]

Hi
For 2 more files, build of snapshot binutils-2.17.50 fails (on Solaris 2.6)
when compiling bfd/vms-hdr.c and bfd/xsym.c because alloca is undefined.

Strangely enough, the first file (bfd/vms-hdr.c) even has
#ifdef HAVE_ALLOCA_H
#include <alloca.h>
#endif

Therfore, it is probably the configure (when using "configure 
--enable-targets=all"
on Solaris 2.6) failing to define HAVE_ALLOCA_H somewhere? (at least on my
platform). Or failing to include the file where HAVE_ALLOCA_H was defined???

Looks like the problem in bfd/elf32-m68hc1x.c reported a few minutes ago
might have the same underlying reason. Like there, unconditionally using
#include <alloca.h>
works for me (but real problem must be somewhere else...?)

Greets,
