Summary: thread_pthread.h on FreeBSD

Initial Comment:
The pthread setstacksize of 64K is too small for 
FreeBSD in some cases (i.e. specifically when running 
Zope/CMF).  The attached diff has worked on 3+ 
different production sites; though the setting of the 
stacksize to 128K was WAG.  It might be possible to 
still overflow the stacksize, though in all the sites 
using this change are no longer having problems.
I've spoken with Fred about this on a few occassions...
Thanks,
Andrew

I have now backported the 2.3 FreeBSD RECURSION_LIMIT code
to 2.2 as 2.77.6.2 and to 2.1 as 2.55.2.1. Closing this
report as fixed.

Oops, Casey didn't speak for everyone. Reopened as a 2.1.4
task.

Casey Duncan says he can live with it for 2.1.x, so I'm
closing this as Won't Fix.

Yes, I definately think it's useful to have the change in 
the 2.1.x branches; specifically anyone running Zope could 
be exposed to this bug.
Thanks,
Andrew

It looks like a similar change has already been applied to
2.2 and beyond. Does that work for you? Do you think it
would be useful to backport this change to the Python 2.1.x
series?
