and you were supposed to put code specific to linux in separate files, which is not the case. You even don't check that the functions you use are available in configure.ac. For example, shm_open does not exist on OpenBSD (a quick search on google and i found that : http://www.groupsrv.com/linux/about60282.html and note that i don't know anything about those functions, so the link is to help you, that's all) > - _cserve2_slave_proc_run() could be changed to be specific of that > platform.

It must be HIGH PERFORMANCE. high perf ? on Windows ? there is anyway only one way to use shared mem on windows, so if it's slow, i can't do much...
