By default - OK, I thought you mean that it doesn't have
the STACK_RLIMIT at all (doesn't implement it).

It is set by a few distributions (for use with flexmmap) in PAM, but
not by all. The kernel defaults don't have it.
That might explain why I get
$ ulimit -s
8192
on fedora core.
Thanks for explanations.
