pre1 on hpux bug

[Bas V. de Bakker]

Compiling zsh-3.0-pre1 on HPUX 10.10 crashes with

gcc -c -I.. -I. -I.  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -Wno-implicit
-Wmissing-prototypes -O2 -DDEBUG builtin.c
In file included from zsh.h:35,
                 from builtin.c:32:
system.h:366: warning: `RLIM_NLIMITS' redefined
/usr/include/sys/resource.h:134: warning: this is the location of the
previous definition
builtin.c:3590: #error there are some unknown limits.  Fix me!
make[1]: *** [builtin.o] Error 1

This is easiliy fixed by the following patch:

  /* we use the SVR4 constant instead of the BSD one */
--- 350,355 ----

Note that all these definitions are in <sys/resource.h>, but with
RLIMIT_AS added and RLIM_NLIMITS defined to 8.

The presence of this code suggests that some earlier version of hpux
needs this.  But as we don't have any other versions here, I'm afraid
I'll leave figuring out the details to someone else.

Maybe that #ifdef should merely be changed to "#if defined(__hpux) &&
!defined(RLIM_NLIMITS)".
