merges r23720 from trunk into ruby_1_9_1.

--
* thread.c (ruby_thread_stack_overflow): call rb_exc_raise() on
  stack overflows in the signal handler, if sigaltstack is
  available.  On stack overflow (and with sigaltstack), the signal
  handler is more likely to have room to create an exception
  object.  [ruby-core:23813]
