I reported the problem to the packages' maintainers (su and sudo) but
apparently the problem of su and sudo not resetting resource limits to those
of the target account is not that grave as I expected. su and sudo will
leave your rlimits be as you su(do) to another account - a major bug, IMHO,
but that's just HO.... nothing else.
