    Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Make C_stack_pointer work with LLVM backend
    
    When using LLVM, allocating zero bytes on the stack is legal but
    is documented to return an undefined value.  In practice, this is
    NULL if optimization is enabled, or alloca(1) if not.  Work around
    this by using alloca(1) to get the stack pointer or, in supported
    environments, using inline asm.   alloca(1) may waste a machine word,
    but does not always; also, llvm uses the stack more efficiently,
    so the effects tend to even out.
