Lee,
Is that what is specifically required or do we need PAM updated AND
some new ebuild for set_rlimits?
One or the other - doing both would be pointless.
Actually if your distros glibc is also old then you may need to patch
PAM rather than upgrade it.
Basically set_rtlimits should be considered a stopgap measure to make
non-root SCHED_FIFO work until your distro gets it together and updates
their PAM and glibc ;-)
See why I recommend just upgrading to a distro with a quicker release
cycle?
