In this case I agree, there is no bug in the expander or in the compiler. We should be able to grow stacks, but that is tricky with stable-2.0. Ideally we would be able to link different stack segments together with overflow/underflow handlers, as in the Dybvig paper, but that would require some experimentation that would best be done on master. I pushed a patch based on yours to add a GUILE_STACK_SIZE environment variable. I hate environment variables but hopefully we can remove it in 2.2. Thanks for looking into this!
