I was fortunate in that I hadn't put any data into that database system yet. The 40,000,000 value for shm is higher than the 34 million and change value that postgresql was using before and that would explain why this failure happened. However, it will be a good idea to fix the postgresql 9.1 packages so they increase that shm value for installs especially new installs from tasksel. Otherwise those won't go smoothly. I had cleared all of postgresql from the machine using --purge with remove in aptitude and this error continued on a subsequent install attempt with tasksel.
