A patch went in recently that (on platforms where it's possible) tries
to determine the maximum stack depth and complains if you set it too
large. So this problem should go away in the future...

There might be situations where you want to be able to use a larger
stack, that's why it's configurable. PostgreSQL now actually checks
whether the number you provided makes sense.

Have a nice day,
