In FreeBSD, a normal process (fork/exec) has a stack that grows
automatically as needed. You don't have this for threaded programs
(and it is difficult to do). It's a save guess that this amount of
stack allocation is more than the default stack size for a threaded
program, and the stack cannot grow automatically.
Did you check out the classic model before tangling with pthreads? :-)
