+ Abstract: 
+   This fixes a problem on MUSL where the initial stack size reported by the 
+   pthread_attr_getstack is about 128kB, but this limit is not fixed and 
+   the stack can grow dynamically. The problem is that it makes the 
+   functions ReflectionInvocation::[Try]EnsureSufficientExecutionStack 
+   to fail for real life scenarios like e.g. compilation of corefx. 
+   Since there is no real fixed limit for the stack, the code below 
+   ensures moving the stack limit to a value that makes reasonable 
+   real life scenarios work.
