The (non-portable) pthread APIs "pthread_get_stacksize_np()" and "pthread_get_stackaddr_np()" can be used to implement PyOS_CheckStack on macOS, which would give nicer behavior than crashing when the recursion limit is too high for the stack size of the current thread. Creating a patch should be fairly easy, but does require C knowledge.
