I applied your patch in trunk, hoping that you 
hadn't overlooked something. ;-) In general, I'm 
not sure if this kind of saving 1 byte 
dynamically allocated on stack is really worth 
the risk of possibly breaking something, because 
the 1 byte might have been still needed in some 
special case after all (admittedly, I couldn't 
find why this should happen, which is the reason 
why I applied the patch)...
