title: ulimit -t under ubuntu
body: <p>I am running Ubuntu Linux (2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux) and it seems that the command "ulimit -t" does not work properly. I ran:</p>
  
  <p>ulimit -t 1; myprogram</p>
  
  <p>where 'myprogram' is an endless loop. I expected the program to be interrupted after 1 second, but it did not stop. I tried the same thing on a Linux Fedora installation and it worked as expected.</p>
  
  <p>Is there some configuration that has to be set for it to work properly?</p>
