Yes.

I only got as far as:
if (rlimit(RLIMI_NNN) == RLIM_INFINITY) {
	ns->ucount_max[UCOUNT_LIMIT_NNN] = LONG_MAX;
} else {
	ns->ucount_max[UCOUNT_LMIT_NNN] = rlmit(RLIMIT_NNN);
}
But forcing everything about LONG_MAX to LONG_MAX actually looks better
in practice.  Especially as that is effectively RLIMIT_INFINITY anyway.
