such weirdness, in th x86_64 host, i686 th guest:
sudo-1.7.6-1.i686
pam-1.1.3-3.i686
bash-4.2-2.i686

# bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited

# sudo -u glen bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited

# sudo -u glen sudo bash -c 'ulimit -u'
0
#

on same host, th-x86_64 guest:
sudo-1.7.6-1.x86_64
pam-1.1.3-3.x86_64
bash-4.2-1.x86_64

# bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited
# sudo -u glen bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited
# sudo -u glen sudo bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited
#


on same host, ac-x86_64 guest:
sudo-1.7.3-1.amd64
pam-0.80.1-19.amd64
bash-3.2.48-1.amd64
# bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited

# sudo -u glen bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited

# sudo -u glen sudo bash -c 'ulimit -u'
unlimited
#

the same with ksh, pam limits config is empty (everything commented out)

so far seems problem with 32bit guests on x86_64 hosts, and sudo 1.7.6
anyone else experienced this, or can check their status now?
