The following sections are informative.

Also, from http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/limits.h.html

Implementations may choose any appropriate value for each limit, provided it is not more restrictive than the Minimum Acceptable Values
Applications should not assume any particular value for a limit.

In Anonix, many of the values in limits.h will be  INT_MAX or UINT_MAX. Everything that can vary in size will be dynamically allocated up to available memory or the ulimit for the process, whichever is smaller.
