> The authors of the Stack Clash advisory indicate a 4096 byte guard region is not difficult to jump over and avoid. Their recommendation is a 1MB guard region. Restricting the value at 1 leaves this issue unaddressed.

Fully agreed. However, the implementation in FreeBSD has shown to be unstable
at values greater than 1. For extra fun, set it to a negative value. :)
