thanks, the reasoning becomes clear with this.

ulimit_supported is mainly used by get_min_ulimit_v_ for a given coreutils tool, while the above now uses $SHELL in between: isnt't that usually much larger than our tools, and hence the resulting minimum ulimit_v will be wrong then? Have a nice day, Berny
