Package: util-linux
Version: 2.39.2-6

Dear Maintainer,

prlimit crashes with a segmentation fault when given an unacceptable
value:
  $ prlimit --data=1073741824 printf 'hello\n'
  hello
  $ prlimit --data=0x40000000 printf 'hello\n'
  Segmentation fault
  $ 

It should cleanly reject unacceptable values with an error message.

This relates to my previous bug report about acceptable value formats
being undocumented:
