Without enabling SHMconfig I'm successful using the follwing command:

syndaemon -i 2 -d

Leaving off -S  as directly above tells updated syndaemon's to use
xinput rather than SHMconfig shared memory. If I leave off the -d and
run from the command line I can see the touchpad be disabled and
enabled. Using a -i  value of 2 seems more reliable than -i 0.5 for me.

I'm running xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 0.99.3-2ubuntu4 on a Toshiba
Satellite L355D-S7825.

Does the above command still fail for others when running the released
jaunty?

Preleases of jaunty (xserver-xorg-input-synaptics 0.99.3-2) were missing
a patch which enabled operation without using shared memory but Intrepid
without shared memory worked for me.The lack of the patch in early
jaunty preleases is what bug 321355 was about.
