This is not a kernel leak. Shared memory shown by ipcs is freed by
the application, not the kernel, because there is no other way to
do. If the application fails to clean up (because it dumps core,
for example), use "ipcrm" to clean up after.

Being more specific wouldn't hurt. I don't have any problems with
a Linux traceroute and ping, with a Linux emulator compiled on
April 1st.
