I assume this limit is really based on total size and not on a bound? The limit is implementation-defined, which I interpret to mean that we can do whatever we like, so long as we document what we do.
After asking on the std-proposals list, the consensus seems to be that there's no requirement to actually implement the check because you can just decide that undefined behavior due to stack overflow kicks in before the check has a chance to fire.
