I am writing a multi tasking scheduler that operates under multiple
operating systems, and I am running into trouble on the mac when
I try to reassign the stack pointer. The stack sniffer complains that
I have blown off the stack and gives me an system error.
I am looking for info on the stack sniffer so that I can either
a) turn off the stack sniffer (is this possible?)
	or
b) determine what data structures define where the stack oughta be
   and see if I can fool them. Are there any system calls to define
   wherre the stack should be, or is that determined by the code and
   heap placement?
Please email me as I dont usually dont read this group. Thanks in
advance
