The problem is that you've inserted the AllocaInst into the basic block 
via the AllocaInst constructor (note the Bb at the end of the line with 
new AllocaInst).  You then attempt to insert the AllocaInst into the 
BasicBlock Bb a second time with the last line. Note that the assertion 
is telling you that you're inserting the alloca instruction twice.

Remove the last line, and it should fix your problem.
