The only way I found when using Execute() to get control of the 
subprocess's stack size is to tack a stack command onto the front
of whatever string you were passing to Execute().  I.E., if your
execute command was:

	"ram:doit arg1 arg2"

pass it

	"stack 123456\nram:doit arg1 arg2"

instead (note the embedded newline character).
