Agreed, but in this case I think we don't need to increase PTHREAD_STACK_MIN,
but instead just take up less stack with other things e.g. guard pages, and
static TLS.

I have just reviewed the guard page accounting removal from thread stacks, so
if that goes in we will get a full page back for the stack.
