## Checklist

> Please ensure the following tasks are completed before filing a bug report.

- [x] Read and understood the [Code of Conduct][code-of-conduct].
- [x] Searched for existing issues and pull requests.

## Description

> Description of the issue.

Am encountering a `Segmentation fault (core dumped)` error when running C benchmarks of mathematical functions.

## Questions

> Any questions for reviewers?

No.

## Other

> Any other information relevant to this issue? This may include screenshots, references, stack traces, sample output, and/or implementation notes.

The issue seems to be due to the benchmarks overflowing the default maximum stack size of 8 MB.
Increasing the stack size via e.g. `ulimit -s 32767` causes the benchmarks to run properly.

We might want to rethink whether to allocate memory with `malloc`.

#### Reproduction

> What steps are required to reproduce the unexpected output?

In order to reproduce this bug, do the following:

- From the top-level `stdlib` directory, run

```
make benchmark-c BENCHMARKS_FILTER=.*/dsqrt/.*
```

#### Expected Results

> What are the expected results?

The benchmarks should run without issues.

#### Actual Results

> What are the actual results?

The following are the actual results:

```text
(...)
ok 14 benchmark finished
# c::dsqrt:len=100000

iterations: 1000
elapsed: 0.429753065

```

#### Environments

> What environments are affected (e.g., `Node v0.4.x`, `Chrome`, `IE 11`)? If Node.js, include the `npm` version, operating system, and any other potentially relevant platform information.
