I would do 1), 3) this way ...

> 2) Find out how big a thread's stack is
By default, OS reserves 1 MB of memory for a thread's stack. One can specify
a different size with a linker option or a STACKSIZE statement in the .DEF
file. So it's, sort of, up to us how big a thread stack is. No problem here.
