In your compilation configuration file (the one you run the 'config'
program on), add the line :

options		"CHILD_MAX=xxx"

(xxx being the default number of processes you want per user parent process.)

You probably should also increase the open files limit to go with this :

options		"OPEN_MAX=xxx"
