/* Should we use malloc or alloca? If REGEX_MALLOC is not defined, we
use `alloca' instead of `malloc'. This is because using malloc in
re_search* or re_match* could cause memory leaks when C-g is used in
Emacs; also, malloc is slower and causes storage fragmentation. On
the other hand, malloc is more portable, and easier to debug.
Because we sometimes use alloca, some routines have to be macros,
not functions -- `alloca'-allocated space disappears at the end of the
function it is called in. */
