AFAIK the stack overlapping with the heap is a problem which happens only
in Windows (and perhaps MacOS?).
  If I'm not completely mistaken, in most Unix systems the stack of a program
starts from the maximum memory address which the system supports (which is
32-bit systems would be at least 2 gigabytes, if not 4). Since the heap starts
from a very low memory address (typically some tens of kilobytes) it's highly
unlikely that they will ever overlap (because usually you run out of memory
before this happens).
