Hmmm. How about something like:
apr_sysv_shmem_setuid2user(0|1); /* whether we want/need to assign uid */
apr_sysv_shmem_getuid2user(); /* true if we want/need to assign uid */
Not sure if we should separate the uid/User-gid/Group stuff or not.
Basically, the simplest is some way of having APR know whether or
not to perform the shmctl() call to set the uid/gid, and someway for
Apache to adjust that knowledge.
OT: Most likely, something like "apr_set_var(name, value); apr_get_val(name);"
where name reflects what we typically think of as global state vars might
be useful.
