When spawning a new container (via clone()) we allocate stack for lxcContainerChild(). So far, we allocate 4 pages for the stack and this used to be enough until we started rewriting everything to glib. With glib we switched to g_strerror() which localizes errno strings and thus increases stack usage, while the previously used strerror_r() was more compact. Fortunately, the solution is easy - just increase how much stack the child can use (16 pages ought to be enough for anybody).
