Just as point of interest:
On most CPU where the stack works down until it hits the top of the variables it is pretty easy to detect. Just stick a known value at the end of the variables and test its value in the main loop to see if it overwritten. I have done this many times over the years, also moving the value around lets you detect corruption caused by out of bounds array references and similar.
