Hm, the present problem seems to be about semaphores not shared memory
... although I'd not be surprised to find that there's a similar issue
around shared memory.  Anyway, if FBSD's position is that they are
uninterested in supporting SysV IPC in connection with jails, then I
think the Postgres project position has to be that we are uninterested
in supporting Postgres inside FBSD jails.  Sorry Marc :-(
