Hmm, hadn't thought of that. Fortunately the default ulimit is 16 Meg
on A/UX, not 1 Meg. And if that's not big enough for you, just change
the kernel param. CDLIMIT with kconfig and up it to anything you want, up
to 0x7fffffff. You don't have to bother with all the nasty kludges used on
other SysV systems to get around the stock stupid 1M limit. So you can now
go home and do your 15Meg downloads in comfort.
