New submission from Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com>:

The (non-portable) pthread APIs "pthread_get_stacksize_np()" and 
"pthread_get_stackaddr_np()" can be used to implement PyOS_CheckStack on macOS, 
which would give nicer behavior than crashing when the recursion limit is too 
high for the stack size of the current thread.

Creating a patch should be fairly easy, but does require C knowledge.
