   I don't want to create a thread that adjusts its stack size at run time. I
want to create applications with threads that don't use too much thread stack
space, so I'd want to know how do the others calculate the space required by a
thread.

  I have seen a member "stack_limit" and two methods "increment_stack_limit"
and "get_stack_limit" in the Cyg_Thread class that I think that are supposed to
help the developers adjust their stacks doing some kind of run-time
simulation... but I don't know how to use that.
