/* 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.  */
