[LC++]Getting shared memory segments ...

[Jack Lloyd]

See how ipcs does it. :)

Though to be honest, I just looked at what `strace ipcs` says, and it looks
like it's doing something really hairy involving UDP sockets. It may be
easier to just execute `ipcs` and parse the output. Probably somewhat more
portable, too.
