I did not touch cdefs.h, David did.  The commit message was
inaccurate; while it claims that I submitted the patch, I'm only
responsible for one line of it:

#define        alloca(sz)      __builtin_alloca(sz)

The #error line he added is incorrect as it breaks compliant
applications which do not use the nonstandard and nonportable
alloca(3).
