Just to make it sure, I did a small test with

int main(int argv, char *argc[]) {
        char big[100000000];
        big[99999999]=0;
        return big[0];
}

If ulimit is set to unlimited or more than 100 M it works, otherwise it 
crashes.
Try it yourself. Maybe there is a stack limit imposed by a library you use, 
but neither the C++ compiler nor the operating system have limits besides the 
archictecture depended limits, AFAIK at least 2 GB.
So this is the wrong place to look for errors, i recommend to debug your 
program/libray.
