Recent David tests shows that removing -s form OW build
flags to enable stack debug code is not enough workaround.
The problem can be still exploited by CRTL code which is
compiled without stack debug code and can executed APIENTRY16
functions. We have such situation in GTSTD which use kbhit()
and getch() CRTL functions.
So the only effect we can reach by removing -s is very serious
speed overhead but it will not change current runtime behavior
of Harbour applications.
