Would it make sense to add this to the test suite some how, either by adding a ulimit call to the makefile, or adding some resource.setrlimit() call to site.py or test{,s}re.py?

There's a patch of sf to do this. It's probably a good idea (I forget to do this fairly often). Or maybe it could be in Modules/main.c:main()...

Cheers, M.
