Isn't the solution to this problem to just implement PyOSCheckStack() for unix?

And for Windows...

I still want to control the recursion depth for other reasons than
preventing crashes. Especially when I have embedded Python inside my
app. (CUrrently I have to defend against a GPF under windows when
def x(): x() is called.)
