maybe: 

a) run an separate cleaning process before actually starting httpd
b) rewrite httpd to not use the sysv-ipc at all, but lockfiles 
   (flock() etc) instead.
   
Actually, I'd consider the whole sysv-ipc stuff as very outdated. 
IMHO, there's nothing that can't be done easily via filesystems.
