It's by design that upstart does not look at /etc/security/limits.conf for system jobs. PAM settings are only applied to user sessions, not to system services.

As Alexander comments, we do want to apply PAM limits to user jobs, something which is currently not implemented; but that's not what this bug report is about, so closing.
