Marius Gerbershagen e37fafb335 stacks.d: fix several problems with C stack
ecl_cs_set_org and cs_set_size had several problems:
-the size of the stack was estimated to be 1/2 of the actual value,
 which could lead to wrong stack overflow errors. In particular, we
 cannot assume that the stack pointer will always start at the stack
 origin and increase/decrease linearly (counterexamples could
 include callbacks from other threads).
-despite its name, cs_set_size did not actually set the stack size
 even on systems where this is possible at runtime.
-there were several magic numbers used.

ECL stands for Embeddable Common-Lisp. The ECL project aims to produce an implementation of the Common-Lisp language which complies to the ANSI X3J13 definition of the language.

The term embeddable refers to the fact that ECL includes a Lisp to C compiler, which produces libraries (static or dynamic) that can be called from C programs. Furthermore, ECL can produce standalone executables from Lisp code and can itself be linked to your programs as a shared library. It also features an interpreter for situations when a C compiler isn't available.

ECL supports the operating systems Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, OpenBSD, Solaris (at least v. 9), Microsoft Windows (MSVC, MinGW and Cygwin) and OSX, running on top of the Intel, Sparc, Alpha, ARM and PowerPC processors. Porting to other architectures should be rather easy.
