gnu: racket-vm-bc: Add workaround for ppc64le.
This is an attempt to avoid a problem with Racket BC on ppc64 reported in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/57050#19> that was exposed by attempting to use Racket BC to bootstrap Chez Scheme. Thanks to Matthew Flatt for the workaround: <https://racket.discourse.group/t/950/30>. * gnu/packages/racket.scm (racket-vm-bc)[arguments]<#:configure-flags>: Increase the number of bytes that should be available on the stack for "safety" when checking for stack overflow. Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>
