I've also tweak the running the test so that it uses the minimum amount of stack (so we get stackoverflow sooner) and runs in interpreted mode (so we eliminate any potential JIT oddities with inlining etc.). Hopefully this will be more stable - otherwise I will just delete the test.

Thanks @coleenp . If this doesn't make it more stable I will just remove the test.
