I don't know about OS X, but in 64-bit Linux I can increase the recursion limit 
to 100000 if I allow the main thread to grow to 64 MiB by setting the 
RLIMIT_STACK soft limit. For example:

    soft, hard = resource.getrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_STACK)
    soft = max(soft, 64 << 20)
    if hard != resource.RLIM_INFINITY:
        soft = min(soft, hard)
    resource.setrlimit(resource.RLIMIT_STACK, (soft, hard))

Alternatively it also works to use a worker thread with a fixed 64 MiB stack 
size, set as follows:

    old_size = threading.stack_size(64 << 20)
    # create worker thread
    threading.stack_size(old_size)
