> …d on macOS
> 
> This patch simply round up the specified stack size to multiple of the system page size. 
> 
> Test is trivial, simply run java with -Xss option against following code. On MacOS, before the fix, running with `-Xss159k` and `-Xss160k` would get `7183` and `649` respectively. After fix, both would output `649`, while `-Xss161k` would be same as `-Xss164k` and see 691 as the output.
