I guess we lost the ability to do that automatically when we stopped
using vm-limit.c on modern platforms?
We still could use the memory limit calculated by get_lim_data in
strategic places, like cache_image, to catch situations where the
cache size exceeds some fraction of what ret_lim_data returns. Would
that work?
