The tunable kernel paramater "SEMMNS" defaults to 60, that's the
maximal number of semaphores allowed in the system (accumulated over
all calls to semget() that are active by the same time).
Also, due to the crocky^H^H^H^H^H^Hfunny concept of SysV IPC, you
might as well run out of semaphore IDs instead (== #calls to semget()),
which is the tunable parameter SEMMNI, defaulting to 10.
