Just to give you some debugging help for the future: you can get the
attachees to a shm segment with shmfs using fuser(1):

[root /root]# ipcs -m
 
------ Shared Memory Segments --------
key       shmid     owner     perms     bytes     nattch    status
0x00000000 32769     nobody    600       46084     11        dest
 
[root /root]# fuser -v /dev/shm/.IPC_00008001
 
                     USER        PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/shm/.IPC_00008001
                     root        883 ....m  httpd
                     root        886 ....m  httpd
                     root        887 ....m  httpd
                     root        888 ....m  httpd
                     root        889 ....m  httpd
                     root        890 ....m  httpd
                     root        891 ....m  httpd
                     root        892 ....m  httpd
                     root        893 ....m  httpd
                     root        894 ....m  httpd
                     root        895 ....m  httpd

The number in .IPC_######## is the shmid in hex.

So if you are in doubt which program is to blame, you should have a
way to find it now.
