-# MachTen 4.0.2 and earlier do not implement System V interprocess
-# communication (message queues, semaphores and shered memory); 4.0.3 has a
-# half-baked implementation which provides the corresponding library
-# functions but does not implement the system calls or provide the header
-# files (or documentation). The perl installation process correctly divines
-# that System V IPC is not usable in either case. Do not attempt to persuade
-# it otherwise, or the resulting perl will crash (rather than producing an
-# error message) if you attempt to use the functions.
