Perhaps you can set the ulimit manually (don't ask me how to do
this from C...).

This is only read (AFAIK) by /bin/login. It doesn't even work for ssh
logins (I could be out-of-date now, with the increased usage PAM -
anyone know for certain?).
Another package you may want to look at is lshell. This will help fix
the problem with sshd, but I am not sure if it will work for your
situation.
