Well, Benoit will of course give you more detailed and appropriate
explanations, but in the meanwhile I can tell you what I discovered about the
stack.

Since I had a deeply recursive function, I used up all the stack space so I
went around to see how this could be changed.

I found out something interesting in main/gbx/gbx_stack.c, namely the
STACK_size variable which is by default 16K.

I increased it and recompiled gambas, and didn't run out of stack space anymore.

Hope it helps.
