That's not runtime adjustment... the startup code references _stklen to
figure out how much stack to allocate.  If you aren't overriding the _stklen
that is in their libraries, you'll get their amount.
If you override it twice, however, the linker will complain about multiple
references.  If you change it at runtime, it will have no effect because the
runtime code that changes the stack size has already run, and won't be run
again...
... I am Witness of Borg.  Have you been assimilated?
