Comment (by Phyx-):

 Hmm,

 when I pass it to the linker as an argument to GHC I get

 {{{
 gcc.exe "-fno-stack-protector" "-DTABLES_NEXT_TO_CODE" "-Wl,--hash-
 size=31" "-Wl,--reduce-memory-overheads" "-Xlinker" "--
 stack=0x800000,0x800000" "-static-libgcc" "-Xlinker" "--
 stack=0x800000,0x7E000"
 }}}

 so it should work. Unless you can only set it once?

 I'm keen on seeing a proper fix, but for now, if passing it to GHC doesn't
 work, maybe we can make it a flag to GHC to control the reserved and
 commit space.
