 Well i386 doesn't seem to have a sysctl for linux stacksize, can
ulimit be used for this too?  Because I can't seem to reproduce this
problem on an i386 20090605 vbox head guest with the new ports, suddenly
flash behaves even when I click the youtube `watch in hd' button, even
multiple times...  (On 7-stable amd64 with f8 the sysctl does help tho.)

 Oh and if ulimit does indeed work for the linuxulator maybe
nspluginwrapper should be patched instead?  (Or at least on i386?)

 Wondering...
