GCC and alloca

Even though we have no calls to alloca in our code, we're getting (link) errors
that __alloca is an unresolved external.  I believe this is because gcc seems to
use _alloca for allocating some local structures on the stack to optimize for
time.  Is there a gcc command-line option to turn this off?

If not, what is the library I need to include to resolve the alloca reference?

Thanks in advance
