Just to be sure: How large is this per-thread stack? Are you properly
aligning it to page boundaries? Otherwise you might miss mapping some
parts of the stack. (Mappings always base on hardware memory pages,
that's why your stack should be a multiple of a page size large and
start at an address that is the start of a page.)

It's a bad idea to figure this out before you fix the previous
problem. Let's keep complexity low.
