Doesn't have to be on defrost.  Any setting other than vent and floor
runs the AC compressor.

Do you have the defroster or your climate control on?  My car did this
last year.  I got the A/C system recharged because it wasn't blowing
cold.  A by-product of that was the car stopped the almost-stalling
thing.  I figure it had something to do with the extra load on the
compressor when it was low on charge.
