mono-list would be more appropriate.

You'd have to P/Invoke the methods manually:

        [DllImport ("libc")]
        public static extern int shmget (int key, UIntPtr size, int shmflag);

The downside is that it's not quite this easy, since `key' is supposed
to be a `key_t' (which happens to be an int on x86 Linux), and `size' is
a `size_t', which is (1) typically an unsigned long, and (2) 32-bits on
32-bit platforms, 64-bits on 64-bit platforms (hence a UIntPtr).  It may
require platform-specific glue code to be fully portable; see
MonoPosixHelper (in mono/support) for an example.
