There is only one way to modify limits, and that is setrlimit, which
is how ulimit is implemented. Given ulimit and setrlimit are both in
POSIX, I don't see why anyone would write their own wrapper to do
this.

The way I typically add limits is to edit the rc (startup) script, and
add a call to ulimit there. This applies the limit to the process
which launches the daemon, its a simple clean one liner, and doesn't
require massaging command line arguments into a sh -c '' line (or
bash).
