No, there's no set limit per process.  The only limitation is the 
per-process address space.  The larger the thread stack, the less threads 
you can start.  If you're going to use that many threads in a process, 
getting near the process address space limit (which, jumps to 3GB for 
32-bit programs running under Warp 5, AKA WSeB, and Warp Server 4), it's 
important to check all memory allocations, so you don't end up crashing 
your program.
