Is there anything stopping this from being merged? I just ran into this bug 
again on the current project I'm working on.

Subject: [PATCH] posix: Only check shm_unlink obj_err if necessary

In the nominal case checked by spsysinit01, obj_err is unmodified if 
_POSIX_Shm_Get_by_name returns non-NULL. In the case of shm_unlink, this means 
an uninitialized value is passed into the switch and it appears this test was 
passing by virtue of the stack having the right value on it in most cases. This 
now checks obj_err only if _POSIX_Shm_Get_by_name returns NULL.
