I'm porting some Carbon CFM to Carbon Mach-O (so that I can link in some
gcc-style assembler), and one problem I have hit is that there doesn't
seem to be any way to set the stack size for a Mach-O executable. I know
that I need about 2 Mb of stack and sure enough my Mach-O app crashes on
entry to one of the routines that uses a lot of stack space, so I'm
guessing that the default Mach-O stack size is probably quite small. Do
I have to do something arcane like create a linker control file or some
such nastiness ?...
