// i've been playing with a bunch of programs and they all seem to like to
// leave around SYSVSHM segments, this is especially problematic in programs
// running under the linux emulation.
// 
// i get a lot of messages on the consol:
// linux-emu(1040) - setup() not implemented.

SYSSHM memory should be politely released by the program, as it's not
done at exit().  If the program has simply aborted, chances are that
the shmem is not being release.  Take a look at ipcrm(1).
