+Test that prologue recognition, backtrace, printing locals, etc.,
+still work in the presence of large frames (the point being that at
+some point immediate fields in RISC instructions will overflow and
+prologues will need to look different. For sparc, the immediate field
+is 13 bits (signed), so I believe the threshold would be 4K bytes in a
+frame).
