You should first ensure that you are using a recent version of TeXmacs
(which version are you using?). Indeed, I have been told lately that
you can increase the stack size in guile by putting the command

(debug-set! stack 1000000)

at the top of the Init.tm initialization file.
So you should either add that line or download the latest version.
If that still does not fix the problem,
please post a message on the guile mailing list with a cc to me.
What happens if you run guile from the command line?
