       I'm using version 1.1 of FreeBSD and found that shared memory
    access using shmget,shmctl,... is included but not implemented,
    is it part of 2.0 or is is still TBD. Thanks for the info.

You need to recompile a kernel with the SYSV* options enabled.  Look
at /sys/i386/conf/LINT for examples.  It definitely _is_ implemented
in this and all subsequent versions of FreeBSD!
