I am certainly not an expert in OSX, but many Unix variants have to
have the changes made in the conf directories; then the kernel has to
be rebuilt AND the environment rebuilt. It is not a one step process on
all Unix variants. I don't know for sure, but rebuilding the
environment after making the changes to the files in the conf
directories may rebuild the rc files.

Neil,
I posted to the apple site asking if anyone could
recommend the 'correct' place to edit these settings.
I don't think a change like this would survive a
system update.....
But it was the only way I got the settings to 'take'.
It deserves to be mentioned in the docs that this is
necessary at least as far as 10.3.1 (osx).

you must edit the /etc/rc file.
/System/Library/StartupItems/SystemTuning/SystemTuning
does nothing....
Should we update the documentation's advice? At
present, it suggests:
MacOS X
Edit the file
/System/Library/StartupItems/SystemTuning/SystemTuning
and change the following values:
sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmax
sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmin
sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmni
sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmseg
sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmall
(Without a Mac OSX box, I have no idea which is
correct.)
