commit 56c7f38ea6f67748238571028a3bf6a3bebb3eb3
Author: Fred Wright <address@hidden>

    Eliminate the one use of the  portability-challenged alloca()
    
    In general, the use of alloca() is discouraged.  Here, there was
    only one use, with a maximum size determinable at compile time,
    so the code has been reworked to use an ordinary array (without
    relying on the C99 variable-length array feature).  This always
    allows for a GPS_PATH_MAX-sized device_name, but the amount of
    space needed for that is relatively modest, and the behavior is
    more reproducible with a fixed allocation.
    
    TESTED:
    Ran "scons build-all check" on OSX.  This code shouldn't be
    OS-dependent.
