Hex, so about 2 mb of stack by default.

Yes.  Also, if the poster happens to have visual studio installed, there
is a utility called editbin that allows manually changing a stack (be
sure to change postgres.exe and postmaster.exe at the least).

The linker switch to do this is:

The Stack Allocations (/STACK:reserve[,commit]) option sets the size of
the stack in bytes.

Just guessing, but this may have something to do with controlling how
much of the stack can be swapped out to virtual memory.  I'd suggest
leaving it alone.
