Sorry for the initial noise - your analysis is correct, mine was flawed
:) Simple recursion to a depth of 1000 does work fine on a 64bit build.
cpickle.patch does make test_cpickle pass for me. FWIW,
find_recursionlimit.py now causes a segfault on 32 and 64bit Windows
(the comments imply a MemoryError is expected there), and the 32bit
version dies at a depth of 5900, while the 64bit version dies at 3800
(both doing an 'add') - so it does seem there is still a discrepancy -
but not one we need to care about now.
I'm +1 in general on this, but I'm not sure that I'm +1 on this patch
for 1.6 without more careful review than I am able to offer at the
moment; it seems fairly unlikely to be hit "in the wild", but I'll
obviously defer that to others. OTOH, having the test suite segfault
isn't a good look, so we probably need to do *something* for 1.6
