Emacs 18.59 doesn't quite compile as-is on an IBM RT running AOS (4.3
BSD) using gcc 2.3.1: m-ibmrt.h unconditionally defines alloca=_Alloca,
but this is wrong if gcc is being used.  Here is a small patch that makes the
define conditional.

Sat Nov  7 07:21:05 1992  Karl Berry  (karl@red.cs.umb.edu)

        * m-ibmrt.h (C_SWITCH_MACHINE) [!__GNUC__]: Make the -Dalloca
          conditional; we don't need it for gcc.

  /* Don't attempt to relabel some of the data as text when dumping.
     It does not work because their virtual addresses are not consecutive.
