Description

This variable controls behavior when stack overflow occurs.
When*stack-overflow-behaviour* is set to:error, LispWorks signals an error.
When it is set to:warn, LispWorks increases the stack size automatically to accommodate the overflow, but prints a warning message to signal that this has happened.
When it is set to:warn nil, LispWorks increases stack size silently.
