>Subject: [PATCH] Add ulimit -s 16384 to avoid segfault on PPC64 during make
> check
>
>The issue is related to the stack being too small when running the
>ok-errors.R test case.  This test will cause an infinite recursion
>loop, which should be interrupted by R.  On x86_64, this works as
>expected.  On ppc64, the stack size needs to be doubled to 16384
>(ulimit -s 16384) to be able to run successfully, otherwise the
>segfault will happen.
