Hello,

We have seen that the default stack size for the binutils on Windows has been
reduced to 0x200000 (2 mb). Why this have been set so low. We have seen
regressions on some (not so big) Ada code because of this change.

The change has been done on 2001-06-05:

<<
2001-06-05  Danny Smith  <danny_r_smith_2001@yahoo.co.nz>

	* emultempl/pe.em (init): Reduce default stack reserve to 0x200000.
>>

Previous version was 0x2000000 (32 mb). Note that we are talking about stack
reserve, nothing is commited as Windows does commit on use.

Pascal Obry.
