I tried with ulimit -d 2097152, but when I check back again (immediately after setting it), it reads "data seg size           (kbytes, -d) 524288" (again).  I tried changing kern.maxdsiz, but I get "sysctl: unknown oid 'kern.maxdsiz'"... I'm running 6-STABLE as of two days ago.

Change kern.maxdsiz in /boot/loader.conf.  It is one of those variables 
that must be set at boot time.
