We don't set the initial rlimit and that is the mystery here since it
should not have come up as unlimited when the system ulimit is small
(8192K in your case). But I guess it does make sense for the test case
to figure out a second threshold that would be reasonable, since it is
also likely that some system may have rlimit_stack explicitly set to
unlimited. __alloca_cutoff should be a good second guess if we get
stacksize as too high. I will change and resubmit once 2.17 opens.
