Message:

Fix ia64 regression introduced in mainline,966.
The ia64 stack is actually two stacks in one:

• the regular memory stack, which is now STACK_SIZE / 2 bytes long
• and the equally sized RSE stack

Note that ia64 is now the only architecture which effectively uses
only one memory frame for its memory stack.
