I very seriously doubt this. Apache uses shared memory for the scoreboard communication between the parent and child processes. In Apache 2.0, this is done using APR's shared memory support. Also, the APR testsuite tests shared memory, and while I don't currently have a Solaris machine, the last time I had one, APR passed this test on Solaris. Perhaps you could give us more information about why you think APR's shared memory appears to be bogus. As for which platforms don't implement shared memory support, they are few and far between, because as I have said Apache requires it. Netware is one, however that definately doesn't support it.
