Now since I've #include-ed "i386-gnu/bits/resource.h", do I need to #define
the RLIMIT_* symbols with VKI_ prefixes?
vki-linux.h doesn't but darwin's does.
vki-linux does, in the vki-*-linux.h files.
Moreover, ours are inside eums, so maybe I think they will be
automatically picked up by rlimit and friends.
But valgrind uses VKI_RLIMIT_* macros, not RLIMIT_* macros, so you have
to define the former.
Now, AIUI valgrind redefines everything from scratch, without using
system headers. It seems darwin does use system headers, but AIUI it's
not the way it's supposed to be done: vki-*.h redefines everything that
coregrind needs from scratch.

Thanks for that timely information :) I was following darwin's style.
Indeed vki-linux borrows the code.
Is that the proper convention - I think so since valgrind was originally
written for linux.
The argument for darwin's as presented in its beginning notes/docs was -
since both were gpl licensed (the xnu and valgrind) the headers were
directly #includ-ed.
But now I'll have to be more careful to avoid importing of declarations
beyond our use.
I'll just change them.
