Comment(by simonmar):
It's true that the main thread doesn't respect the `+RTS -ki` setting, but
I wonder whether you really want to do that. You said "so that I could
give a large stack to some foreign code I was calling", which suggests a
misunderstanding: the Haskell stack is not the same as the C stack, and
any changes to make to the size of the Haskell stack will have no effect
on foreign code.
Could you explain the original problem you're trying to solve by changing
the stack size?
