Comment (by cal@…):

 You're right, the struct might not be initialized; I should have seen that
 before commiting.

 My shell seems to have a default soft limit on the number of open files (I
 never changed any limit settings). It currently is 2560, but I recall it
 being 256 when I checked last time. Maybe the OS (or my shell) is doing
 some magic… The hard limit is unlimited, though.

 Your patch looks good, but if getrlimit failed, setrlimit would work on
 unitialized data structures, so I thought it might be better to only run
 setrlimit when getrlimit succeeds. See r105765.
