I didn't shoot anything down.  If you read my email again, you'll see
that I pointed out that it was slow, but that we didn't really have a
choice precisely because sysv{msg,sem} were not guaranteed to be
present.

Dropping sysctlbyname() was *your* choice.  I agreed with the revised
patch because you pointed out that linprocfs depends on linux, which
depends on sysv{msg,sem}, so we *could* rely on their presence.
