Of course it has. E.g. all the mingw stuff is running nicely and I don't
think gcc/g++ will run with such a small stack.
Furthermore Staale only wrote a small test for locating the error.
My primary failing programm (unfortunately much bigger) doesn't
allocate big arrays on the stack.
And why does Staale's program run under 4.0 ?

Sorry for being harsh, but I have to say so.
A C++ system which limits the stack to 0.001 Gb on machines
which have 1-4 Gb nowadays is not uptodate.

It's my feeling as well, that DevC++ 4.9.x generates 16 bits
applications by default.

It would be better if there were a method to increase the
stack size. It can't believe it's a Win2000 problem.
