Seems that anonymous shared memory test are passing, and that was exactly
the mechanism I was perusing.

Also seems that Ryan stated that any platform having multi-child
(worker/forked) mpm inherently supports anonymous shared memory. That is
what I was hoping, cause those are the platforms that need shm for load
balancing and status support. On the platforms like Netware and Win32 that
only have threaded mpms there is no need to have shared memory at all, cause
they run in a single child process.
