Yes, there seems to be an awful lot of noise being made about the fact that the system does, in fact, work exactly as documented, and that the configuration being complained about is one that is specifically documented as being unsupported and undesirable.

As commented elsewhere in this thread, currently, there is no virtualization support for System V IPC in the FreeBSD Jail implementation. That may change if/when someone implements it. Until it's implemented, it isn't going to be there, and the system won't behave as though it's there no matter how much jumping up and down is done.

sysvipc has been implemented once, but it has been decided that it adds unnecessary bloat. That's sad.

I'm not sure I follow the reasoning behind this statement. Could you direct me to the implementation, and at the specific claim that it adds unnecessary bloat? As far as I know, no implementation of jail support for system v ipc has ever been rejected on the basis that it adds bloat -- all discussion about it has centered on the fact that it is, in fact, a very difficult technical problem to solve, which requires careful consideration of the approach and tradeoffs, and that that careful consideration has not yet bene done.
