HEADSUP to Emacs users

In a continuing effort to track down the cause of the mysterious crashes
that some Emacs users have reported, I'm now wondering if these are
caused by the stack being too small.
If you have been experiencing crashes, please issue the following
command (as administrator, while emacs is not running):
peflags -x0x80000 /usr/bin/emacs-*.exe
This increases the stack size to 8MB. And please let me know if you see
any improvement as a result.
Thanks.
Ken
