I wish this were true.  I'm just a guy with a lot of gray hair.  But
thanks anyway.

So what size of stack was Emacs using before that?

FWIW, even the 32-bit native Windows build uses twice that number
(8MB), so perhaps enlarge the parameter even more.

Also please note that Ryan couldn't build with --enable-checking=all
because the value of STATIC_HEAP_SIZE in sheap.c was too small.  I
suggest to enlarge it as needed.

Thanks.
