[ILUG] [Q] how to get rlimits for some other process?

[ILUG] [Q] how to get rlimits for some other process?

 this has me puzzled:  I want to see the resource limits
 (rlimits) for some _other_ process.  is there a command,
 file (e.g., in /proc ?), or system call that will let me
 do this.  Linux 2.6.4 (SUSE 9.1).

 bash(1)'s ‘ulimit’ command, and the getrlimit(2) system
 call, can only examine the current (calling) process.
 I want to peek (for debugging purposes) at some other
 poor bugger.  (and I want the rlimits, not the rusage.)

cheers!
