It is also documented to some degree here:

http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.programming.html#faq.programming.msvs-mingw

But, of course, now that I have provided a link, I see that it is out of
date.  You need 4212 bytes free at the bottom of the stack, not 4K.  I'm
half-heartedly looking at some way to expose that value to a program
currently.

Further questions or comments about this technique should be directed to
the cygwin mailing list: cygwin AT cygwin PERIOD com
