Eelco Dolstra 98ef11677c EvalState::callFunction(): Make FunctionCallTrace use less stack space
The FunctionCallTrace object consumes a few hundred bytes of stack
space, even when tracing is disabled. This was causing stack overflows:

  $ nix-instantiate '<nixpkgs> -A texlive.combined.scheme-full --dry-run
  error: stack overflow (possible infinite recursion)

This is with the default stack size of 8 MiB.

Putting the object on the heap reduces stack usage to < 5 MiB.

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
