One possibility is that the detection of virtual-memory based stacks
didn't work at configure time.  This is the case if you are running
a 2.0 kernel for linux.  You can check this using

?- feature(dynamic_stacks, X).

X = true

(if this is the case).  If it says No or false, upgrade to the current
version of Prolog (3.2.8) and you are most likely ok again.
