[stunnel-users] Enhancement request - Increase thread stack size

Looks like there is a 64K+ struct on the stack in the engine code. Very likely
this is my problem. But I'll check through the openssl stuff preceding this as well,
and let you know if there is anything that looks too big.

If you find that there is stack abuse on the openssl side of things,
please let me know. (Patches are welcome of course, but I'm going back
into that code soon anyway, so I can always dig on my own if there are
reports of trouble.)
