In all likelihood, the problem with
  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1980267
is that bash stack size is limited.

The only way I have managed to provoke a "Program stack overflow" is to issue
  ulimit -s 10000
and then build the RPM. That makes my build fail at the same step as the Koji
build above.

"ulimit -s 100000" works. I use "ulimit -s unlimited".

Forget Comment 20 where I spoke about allocating more stack. The makefiles
allocate plenty Lisp stack, which is unrelated to the program stack problem.

All this happens to be in line with CLISP documentation:
http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/faq.html#faq-stack

Googling for koji and ulimit I found no more than
http://koji.rutgers.edu/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1671

---

Now I have two questions:

Do you happen to know if koji limits the bash stack size
(i.e. the number printed by "ulimit -s").

If yes, do you know a way that I can increase the bash stack size under Koji?
