It's same as CPython. The difference is that the maximum recursion
depth is not set by default on IronPython. So just set it.

IronPython 1.0.2448 on .NET 2.0.50727.42
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
>>> import sys
>>> sys.getrecursionlimit()
2147483647
>>> sys.setrecursionlimit(1000)

And you will get a nice RuntimeError.
