That's actually the first thing I checked.
mchouque - /usr/src/kernel/linux %ulimit -s
unlimited
And for the record, ulimit -a yields:
-t: cpu time (seconds) unlimited
-f: file size (blocks) unlimited
-d: data seg size (kbytes) unlimited
-s: stack size (kbytes) unlimited
-c: core file size (blocks) 0
-m: resident set size (kbytes) unlimited
-u: processes 16375
-n: file descriptors 1024
-l: locked-in-memory size (kb) 32
-v: address space (kb) unlimited
-x: file locks unlimited
-i: pending signals 16375
-q: bytes in POSIX msg queues 819200
-N 13: 0
-N 14: 0

Anything else you'd like me to try?
