It's just the way the SysV shared memory API works --- there's a "key"
chosen by the application, and an "identifier" which is chosen by the
kernel, but they're both just identifiers for a particular shared memory
segment. "man 2 shmget" might be informative, or try "sudo ipcs -m"
for a listing of SysV shared memory segments on your system.
