Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately I am not very convinced since we 
already have the self imposed limitation for the maximum size of the string 
(this is to limit the execution time and memory) so there is no point of 
allowing bigger buffers. Also consider that this may happen on threads where 
the stack is much much smaller, so we cannot allow arbitrary length arrays.

Also, on a minor note, we use a restricted set of c99 supported by all 
compilers so we would need to check if this is supported in all of them.
