>Description:
When building kernel, SYSV* options are REQUIRED; one cannot
omit them because /sys/vm/vm_glue.c demands that shmfork() be
present. if SYSV shared memory is not an option, it should be
noted in the GENERIC makefile:
options SYSVMSG,SYSVSEM,SYSVSHM # MANDATORY
>How-To-Repeat:
comment out SYSVSHM from your kernel config file
rm ../compile/$KERNEL
config $KERNEL
cd ../compile/$KERNEL
make depend
make
>Fix:
None known.
