#5003: test 4038 (ghci) fails on OS X 64 bit.

Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Failure: Runtime crash

Comment(by altaic):
Oh that makes sense. On x86-64, `RESERVED_C_STACK_BYTES` = 2048 *
sizeof(SIZEOF_LONG) = 2048 * 8 = 16384 = 16k. Dividing 8192/16 = 512,
which is roughly the number of iterations the program runs before
crashing. Except they're not loop iterations, they are nested C calls
which each get a whopping 16k of stack. So wouldn't this be expected
behavior?
