[CMake] /STACK:10000000 being added to linker in Visual Studio?

[Robert Dailey]

Here is my final code, this seems to work for both DLL and EXE targets:

string( REGEX REPLACE "/STACK:[0-9]+" "" CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS
"${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS}" )
string( REGEX REPLACE "/STACK:[0-9]+" "" CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS
"${CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS}" )
string( REGEX REPLACE "/STACK:[0-9]+" "" CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS
"${CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS}" )

Thanks for the super quick help David!
