One obvious area is in small embedded systems. It's surprising how hard it can be to track down a stack-caused bug when you've got a bunch of interrupts banging on it. Generally it's a little unnerving to just pray that you've got enough stack given it's hidden usage and the possibility for things like recursion. Kind of a shame considering what a slick way it is to deal with memory leak avoidance.
