/* NOTES:
A program that uses alloca, dynamic arrays, or large local
variables may extend the stack by more than a page at a time. If
so, when the stack overflows the operating system may not detect
the overflow until the program uses the array, and this module may
incorrectly report a program error instead of a stack overflow.
To avoid this problem, allocate only small objects on the stack; a
program should be OK if it limits single allocations to a page or
less. Allocate larger arrays in static storage, or on the heap
(e.g., with malloc). Yes, this is a pain, but we don't know of any
better solution that is portable.
No attempt has been made to deal with multithreaded applications. */
