>Description:

	Limits (datasize, memoryuse, ..) are too small for user root, I can't
link a kernel (compiled using -g). Please update /etc/login.conf.

I also noticed:
	- xuser has a cputime of 4M ??? (shouldn't this be in hours/min.)
	- staff is searching for /etc/motd-staff which doesn't exist.
	- there is a warning (cap_mkdb) about duplicate entries.
	- /usr/sbin/userls is not part of the system.
	- login.conf is not yet in login(1), passwd(5), ... man pages
               (FILES and SEE ALSO section).


>How-To-Repeat:

	Make a kernel with debug symbols, you will get a sigv 6 and a failure
from malloc at ld stage. ld should maybe abort more gracefully.

Note that I don't use login classes in passwd file and my root's shell is tcsh.
