Ok, did some searching and apparently the default
thread stack size has been a problem on freebsd
before:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-threads/2004-November/002699.html

The consensus seemed to be that they would raise the
default to be more in line with linux, but apparently
it's still not enough (looks like it's set to a
megabyte on my 32-bit test machine). Anyways, one of
the posts suggests the most portable way is to just
set the stack limit manually through the pthreads api:

pthread_attr_getstacksize()
pthread_attr_setstacksize()

I just tried this setting it to 2 megs, and the
confidence tests pass ok.
