	In that context - NetBSD provides System V shared memory IPC.
	(See options(4)).

	NetBSD _uses_ any number of IPC mechanisms, System V shared
	memory, pipes, sockets, signals...

	It might be worth trying it without that define, to see if it
	helps. If so then you know you need to track down an interaction
	between the ACE code and NetBSD.
