[bug #60798] Make does not compile with GCC 11.1.0

[Jouke Witteveen]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #60798 (project make):

I couldn't find any signs of GCC becoming clever enough to detect why this
code is correct. Minor code changes can silence the _stringop-overflow_
warnings.

The next warning I get (GCC11) is a _return-local-addr_ warning in
src/read.c:2534 (find_percent_cached). Maybe GCC doesn't recognize alloca as a
heap allocation? Just guessing; this warning was not obvious to me.
