This has come up a few times in the past.  Setting this via 'ulimit -m'
would really help, IMO.  Is the reboot really needed for this (i.e., does
the cygwin dll read this value only once on load, and if so, is there a
way of making it read the value over)?  If the reboot can be avoided, I'll
look into the ulimit solution.
