There are a number of bugs related to your problem.  See 

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=119902
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=112093
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=119688

There appear to be two methods to get around your problem.

1) increased shared memory : on the command line do this
echo "33554432" > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

2) Remove /tmp/session_mm.sem or give access permission to the user running
php4. 

>From one of the bug reports, I believe this problem and these solutions are
listed in the readme file for the php4 package (I don't have access to a
debian box right now, so I can't confirm).  Did you know you can get lots of
information on your packages in /usr/share/doc/packagename?
