Also the ipcs and ipcrm utitilities are really useful when working with sysv

be a case for another cygwin_internal() interface? i.e. get the list of ids;
the program then issues xxxctl() calls to get the relevant details or rm the
requested objects. Any objections to such an approach? (Just for comparison,
the usual Un*x implementation involves reading kernel memory via /dev/kmem.)
Do we need a cygwin_internal interface? How do OSes like linux do this?
Maybe it makes sense to start exposing things via the /proc interface, if that
is the way linux does it.
