[OpenAFS] Linux 2.6.10-rc2 osi_misc.c structure has no member named `rlim'

[Matt Benjamin]

1. on x86, current is an inline function which returns a pointer to the 
task_struct associated with the current process, it's defined in an 
arch-specific header (eg, include/asm-i386/current.h)

2. what Derek said

IIRC, this and the EXIT_ZOMBIE are the only issues you'll run into, in 
making libafs, at least.
