Got it: The value used for js.c_childmax isn't 128, but 1024.
In lib/sh/oslib.c, getmaxchild() prefers sysconf(_SC_CHILD_MAX) over CHILD_MAX
over MAXUPRC.
But sysconf(_SC_CHILD_MAX) does return the number of "processes per real user
id" (similar to
ulimit -u), rather than the number of CHILD_MAX (whenever defined).
For Interix, things are different though:
There is no CHILD_MAX nor MAXUPRC defined, and sysconf(_SC_CHILD_MAX) does
return 512,
but PIDs start to be recycled at ~120 already...
Any idea about the "correct" fix for getmaxchild() across platforms?

And there is also a problem when you change the `ulimit -u' value.
