A supply 'penalty' is assessed a the end of the day, plus consequences to Morale and Fatigue. The greater the over stacking, the worse the penalties.
Notably, the supply penalty is assessed after the land combat phase. That means any supply which arrives during that turn by any means (movement over land, air drop, convoys unloading, etc) is available for combat.

so if I have the Supply to waste there is no penalty in combat?

The penalty in combat is indirect AFAIK - higher disruption and fatigue.

Are the stacking limits innate to all the DBB scenarios or only those with extended/alternate map?

Used to play Lite and DaBigBabes A (standard map) and have no recollection of stacking limits, other than the default small islands in the Pacific.
Here it says SLs are for the extended map.

Is a special custom scenario needed for these stacking limits, or do they also work fine on stock scenarios?

From the above mentioned page:
"For those players who wish to use SLs with the Stock Map, a zip is provided with Stock Map Data files "With SL".
The zip file is at the very bottom of the page.

Stacking limits come from a combination of the pwhexe file and the game exe. If you have a new enough exe and a pwhexe file with stacking, it will be enabled. There is a standard map pwhexe file with stacking limits.

No, I realize that the SLs work with the stock map too, I'm asking about actual scenarios. I.e., do all starting setups of all stock scenarios comply with the new SLs? Will the AI respect the new SLs?

Could you clarify what you mean a bit? Do you mean essentially "will some places start the game over stacked?" I'm not sure but I doubt it would be serious.
If you mean "can stacking limits be used with any of the scenarios?" then AFAIK the answer is yes.
