Oh... Ok... That sounds plausible...

Maybe the stack size matters in ur case somehow? I can see, that
it is limited to 1GB, isn't it?

I found something funny, too:
> limit
cputime      unlimited
filesize     unlimited
datasize     524288 kbytes
stacksize    65536 kbytes
coredumpsize unlimited
memoryuse    unlimited
vmemoryuse   unlimited
descriptors  6861 
memorylocked unlimited
maxproc      3430 
sbsize       unlimited
