This seems wrong - is bound to trigger.

So size of of engine needs to be multiplied by count.

How about alloca so cleanup is simpler? Or is alloca also on the 
unpopular list?

Or possibly what Simon suggested, just a large temporary stack arrays 
would be enough and easiest diff. Just with an assert that it fits.

I can do that if you want?
