Details:
Deeply-nested WML tags in UMC can trigger a call stack overflow while Wesnoth
is building its cache during startup, crashing the game.
To test this, just run:
yes "[x]" | head -n 100000 >> _main.cfg
in any campaign directory.
I haven't tested that such code can be uploaded to and then downloaded from
the campaign server, but in a cursory glance over the campaign server code I
saw nothing that would prevent it.
