commit 900056024b75eae8b550d7fee1dec9e71f28344e

    test-skeleton.c: Do not set RLIMIT_DATA [BZ #19648]
    
    With older kernels, it is mostly ineffective because it causes malloc
    to switch from sbrk to mmap (potentially invalidating malloc testing
    compared to what real appliations do).  With newer kernels which
    have switched to enforcing RLIMIT_DATA for mmap as well, some test
    cases will fail in an unintended fashion because the limit which was
    set previously does not include room for all mmap mappings.
