Yes our solution was to make all fallback functions into tail calls. It solves the problem, but requires a lot of discipline and can be a bit awkward.

I recently saw this, which is a very interesting approach for using non-tail-call fallback functions without trashing the code: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/v8/v8/+/4116584
