Trying to use reportbug I found that some libc routines may require
larger stack sizes[1]. In this particular case,
resolv/nss_dns/dns-host.c wants 64k buffer for its operation and
reportbug crashes. Unfortunately, we have small stacks[2].

It would be good to make __libc_alloca_cutoff smaller. For example,
vm_page_size.

Ognyan, can you still reproduce this with a newer glibc? I'll try and
see if I can reproduce it as soon as my GNU/Hurd machine is brought
back up.
