I have a feeling if we get true shmem working in APR (as Ian just posted
about), then this problem goes away, right?  -- justin

one would certainly hope so :)

I'd hack something simple in the meantime using another mechanism
but...

. for OS/390, I hear that SysV sem is the way to go so no hurry there...
