You will have to wait for Akim Demaille (which I think is on vacation right
now).

But there is no point in using both free & alloca, as they both do the
same, providing dynamic allocations. (Check the bug-bison or help-bison
archives for descriptions of alloca.) Therefore defining YYSTACK_USE_ALLOCA
should still be an option.
