Is there any #pragma for turning on/off stack-checking? Like "#pragma off(check_stack)" for Watcom/MSVC.

-s switch turns it on, no -s switch leaves it off.

You can also check the stack for an individual function by calling _chkstack() upon function entry. -Walter

Did this ever check for stack overflow as opposed
to doing a stack probe?  I've got a threading
system where it is advantageous (and prudent) to
rewrite the stack overflow checker, but I have not
been able to get it called using -s.
