/* StackProbe -- probe above the stack to provoke early stack overflow
 *
 * This function should check that the stack has at least depth words
 * available, and if not, then provoke a stack overflow exception or
 * protection fault. The purpose is to ensure that the exception is
 * generated before taking the arena lock where it can be handled
 * safely, rather than at some later point where the arena lock is
 * held and so handling the exception may cause the MPS to be entered
 * recursively.
