I think this is a tcc-specific question, so it's OT in this group.
The tcc documentation should cover that question. In general, the stack 
size an executable may use depends on target architecture and linker 
options, not on the compiler (as long as the compiler does not generate 
absolute machine code for exotic tiny platforms).
