Mats,
There is no compiler option... the amount of runtime stack
space is not determined by the compiler, but by the operating
system systems.
The general setting allow for generous stack space, so,
first make sure you're not infinitely recursing. If it's
infinite - no amount of stack space will fix it!
If it's not infinit - I typically direct people to the
ulimit man page (man ulimit), which points you to the
shell (bash), and the system configuration programs (sysconf.)
The reason your shell gets involved is there is typically
a built-in shell command that adjusts the various
limits.
