This makes NPTL allocate a 8MB stack for each thread that is created.
This breaks in our embedded system. Although this
can be fixed in our app I wonder if this is intentional?
When did this change from unlimited?

It's unlikely but this might be related
803bf5ec259941936262d10ecc84511b76a20921 (post rc7).  You'll also need
to grab this http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/79365/.
