Marco , that did it!
It worked just by increasing this two:

kern.seminfo.semmni=256
kern.seminfo.semmns=2048

I'm copying to the list in order others can benefit from
this too.

Thanks a lot !

I don't recall exactly what was the problem,
but we've run into this as well.

You could try to increase some of the kern.seminfo values with sysctl(8).
Or use this patch against symux:
