I will delete the definitions of OPEN_MAX and CHILD_MAX soon (defining them means that there is a fixed limit), so defining them is wrong on all systems with the corresponding setrlimit()s). This might break some broken ports properly :-). It will break doscmd (which uses a strange mixture of OPEN_MAX and sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)). I fixed all other uses of them in /usr/src some time ago.
