1193 The default stack size under MacOS/X is rather small (512k as opposed
1194 to Solaris 8M), hosing the regexp code, which uses alloca()
1195 extensively, overflowing the stack when complex regexps are used.
1196 Workarounds:

1198 1) Increase your stack size, using `ulimit -s 8192' or a (t)csh
1199 equivalent;
