    bpo-38965: Fix faulthandler._stack_overflow() on GCC 10 (GH-17467)

    Use the "volatile" keyword to prevent tail call optimization
    on any compiler, rather than relying on compiler specific pragma.

    bpo-21131: Fix faulthandler.register(chain=True) stack (GH-15276)

    faulthandler now allocates a dedicated stack of SIGSTKSZ*2 bytes,
    instead of just SIGSTKSZ bytes. Calling the previous signal handler
    in faulthandler signal handler uses more than SIGSTKSZ bytes of stack
    memory on some platforms.
