For logins (or other programs using login classes), put in /etc/login.conf 
for default, like:

default:datasize=256m:

(Put the size you want. See login.conf.)

Then also use sysctl proc.curproc.rlimit.datasize.soft to set it (in 
bytes) for the processes that start processes. Set "curproc" above to the 
process ID you want.

Probably just setting proc.curproc.rlimit.datasize.soft for the apache 
startup script should be good enough. Maybe put it in 
/etc/rc.conf.d/apache?
