I wonder if that's just random luck (although 35% more stack use seems to be bigger than "random" - that's quite a big difference), or whether the gcc guys are aware of having fixed some major stack spill issue. But yeah, Minchan uses gcc 4.6.3 according to one of his emails, so _part_ of his stack smashing is probably due to compiler version.
