Comment (by Christian Maaser <runningwithscythes@…>):

 I don't think that this function is related to the Basic Runtime Checks
 setting, but is generally used in functions that use more than one page of
 stack memory (using large local variables). See
 [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8400118/what-is-the-purpose-of-the-

 chkstk-function].

 I'm currently using the prebuilt version of QT, so I can't simply test
 whether this setting actually removes the call to {{{_chkstk}}}.

 However, I do have a different workaround for this issue which works fine
 for me, so it isn't blocking my work.
