I'd be happy to but it's likely to get done only when some ebuild
developer wants to take it on. Who knows when that might happen,
right?

First step is for me to research the Gentoo bugzilla and see what I
can find. I'll get back to you with that.

I suppose all this would mean is that we cannot move forward with new
kernels after they do this until the Gentoo guys have an ebuild for
set_rlimits. (rlimits or rtlimits?)

Thanks,
