  If you think she can see into the future, shouldn't you be asking something
more interesting than whether cygwin will ever support rlimit, like what next
week's lottery numbers will be or how long you'll live?  ;-)

  Otherwise, http://cygwin.com/acronyms#SHTDI and
http://cygwin.com/acronyms#PTC apply here.  I imagine it should be possible to
use a windows job object to implement it.

    cheers,
