I don't think that should be necessary, except in very trying cases like, say, a database like postgresql. So, whatever is using SYSV shared memory in this scenario, it shouldn't. The fact that I can start
gvim on local Xmingw server but not on a remote X server shows,
that SYSV shared memory can't be a necessity.



Gerrit?


Yes maybe, need to take a look at the configure and build logs though.

Yes, --enable-shm is default=yes. I rebuild now the pending 2.6.10 release with --enable-shm=no and upload later this day.
