On the MacPPC port, I get
INTERNAL ERROR: Application parameter stack overflow.
meaning that the parameter stack used by the program (C stack) overflows,
since we implemented a feature that checks for stack overflow from time to
time.
The strange thing though is that it happens on a Sparc-station, because it
should have an OS kernel which knows how to enlarge the stack at need. Why
does its OS not enlarge the stack?
