stack overflow handling test case

The exception handler for stack overflows tries to use so much stack that it
passes the guard page, causes a second stack overflow, and results in a fatal
error. We found that this problem occurs in 64 bits but not in 32 bits, I guess
because the 64-bit processor contexts are much fatter.

Our use case involves setting up a vectored interrupt handler, so that the
stack overflow can be trapped and handled to continue doing something else. We
didn't try using a structured exception handler. 

We were not sure of how to fix the problem as the root of the crash is too much
use of the stack, which the compiler owns. I was wondering if it was possible
to put the contexts in the heap, but wasn't sure as there might be restrictions
to  exception handling code which I'm not aware of.

I attach a test case which works in 32-bits, and doesn't work in 64-bits.
