Use default stack size on Windows
Perl used to request 16MB of stack instead of the default 1MB (when compiling with VC++). I believe this was done to accomodate the recursive nature of the regex engine, which is no longer a concern since 5.10. The requested stack size will be reserved for each thread created by the process, not just for the main thread. Note also that we don't explicitly specify the stack size when compiling with GCC on Windows (MinGW), which reserves a stack size of 2MB by default.
