Personally I don't think "breakage" is quite the right work.

I also don't like that we're unconditionally not using
USE_ANONYMOUS_SHMEM - doesn't that run into similar config limits on
solaris based stuff as it does on linux etc?

I think if we want to do this, we should rather go with a patch like
