So, it's ok and won't be fixed ?
This has been discussed many times. The only way to fix it in a platform independent way is to add if() checks to see that we're not reaching some arbitrary limit. This kind of sucks so we decided not to fix it.
On multi-process Apache this is a good decision because it's no biggy if the server crashes. It might need to be fixed for MT-safe builds but there's always the question of what the arbitrary limit should be. It depends according to your script how much of the stack is being used. So the limit we give by default might be too high or too low.
