There is a RFE for re-implementing all this SysV shared memory stuff with 
mmap():

Would that ease the pain? I'm not really sure how that's handled by FreeBSD 
jails.

Performance is not an issue in this case. That little piece of shared memory is 
used to share some information between Cherokee and Cherokee-worker. The 
read/write operations are unlikely, to the point that a common server may not 
perform any for tens of minutes, so I wouldn't worry much about it.
