Re: Posix Shared Mem patch

I'm not saying it doesn't happen at all.  I'm saying it's not the 80%
case.

So let's fix the 80% case with something we feel confident in, and then
revisit the no-sysv interlock as a separate patch.  That way if we can't
fix the interlock issues, we still have a reduced-shmem version of Postgres.
