How to recover from a EXCEPTION_STACK_OVERFLOW?

Hi,
I am writting an exception filter for my app that displays a message box and kills the app. The problem is that it does nothing if the exception is a stack overflow, because some stack space is needed to execute my error handling code...
I tried to use _resetstkoflw() but it doesn't help. Is there a way to recover some stack space in order to execute my handler before killing the app?
I am thinking about:
- modifying ESP by hand (risky)
- unblocking a thread in my handler, and execute my error handling code in that thread

Do you have better idea ?

Thanks.
