     Use the Stack Checking option to enable stack probes.
 
     A stack probe is a short subroutine called on entry to a procedure
     to verify that the program stack has enough space for any
     automatic local variables. When stack probes are enabled, the
     stack-probe subroutine is automatically called at every entry
     point. The stack-probe subroutine generates a message and ends the
     program if it determines that the required stack space is not
     available.
