I believe you can also increase the task's stack size in several ways. 
I'm a little sick today, so I won't trust my memory, but I think there's 
2 pragmas that do it (one of them obsolescent), and most compilers have 
a way to change the default stack size as well.

If you thought of this already, I'm sorry. But I didn't want the idea 
getting out that you *have* to move large objects out of tasks.
