	Modify the line in lwp.asm that read:

	add.l	#68+8+3,D0

	to

	add.l	#92+8+3,D0

	The problem is that EXEC pushes state onto the user stack when it
switch amiga tasks .. 80 bytes worth.  92 will definately work.   This line
is in InitLWP() which determines the minimum stack size (that which to add
to the user specified size and calculated subroutine stack usage).

	Otherwise, you will get spurious crashes.  I am trying to figure
a way to not have to allocate so much 'minimum' stack but it may not be
possible.
