Maybe the reason why you couldn't remove the SHM segment even with ipcrm,
was that there were still some processes attached to it. This has happened
to me on HP-UX few times.

NATTCH column in ipcs -ma output shows the number of processes attached to a
segment. And LPID column may give some indication about the process to be
killed.
