I had only one comment the first time around, and Neil addressed it.
I've also tested on x86_64 23-rc2-mm1, and it works here too. I saw where this
uses units of 'bytes' while the shell 'ulimit' uses 1024-byte units in some
places, but (a) this lists the units and (b) it's consistent with setrlimit().
Testing with values >4G show it's 64-bit clean as well.
One question: Is the units milliseconds, or seconds here:
+ [RLIMIT_CPU] = {"Max cpu time", "ms"},
Other than that, feel free to stick either/both of these on:
