It's because that would it make impossible to reuse threads from one
threadpool for another. Additionally thread stack sizes are not very
portable and often not very useful. Older versions of g_thread_create
and g_thread_pool_new had a stack size argument, but we left it out in
the final versions because of that.

Not much, I'm afraid. You could build your own poor-mans-thread-pool
with GAsyncQueue, if you don't need to pass threads from different
threadpools to each other. That should be fairly simple.

Ciao,
