The regression test (testbase_nsk) nsk/regression/b4298656 fails
under the Classic VM ((build JDK-1.2.2-W) on win32.

The test calls recursive_method() in loop.
The second stack overflow causes the test to exit without any message.

To reproduce the bug run doit.bat in
/net/sqesvr/vsn/GammaBase/Bugs/<this bug number>.

The first parameter for doit.bat should be JDK root directory
(e.g. L:/java/jdk1.3/win32) and the second parameter -
VM option(s) (optional).

The doit.bat file contains the CALL_DEPTH variable which is
the number of recursive calls.
By default the CALL_DEPTH variable equals 1000000.

The Kestrel Classic VM runs the test perfectly.
