The bug has been fixed in 3.7, 3.8 and master (future 3.9) branches. I close the issue. Thanks to everyone who was involved to report the bug and help to find the root issue! The relationship between faulthandler, the Linux kernel version, CPU model, and the FPU state size wasn't obvious at the first look ;-)

If someone wants to cleanup/rework how Python handles thread stack size, please open a separated issue. I prefer to restrict this issue to test_faulthandler.test_register_chain() (which is now fixed).
