Part of the reason for this commit is to make the thread-stack and non thread stack cases be the same from the point of view of non kernel programs. his allows the 'VM_STACK' option to be turned on and off entirely vi kernel configurations and the userland to be left alone (after this that is) Testers on the ALPHA platform should contact "Richard Seaman, Jr." to help test the alpha version of these changes. If they are ok then this option can be made standard, allowing Pthreads stacks to be dynamic in the same way that linuxthreads are..
