The system is running 9.4 just fine and the kernel configuration
requirements shouldn't have changed for semaphores.... should they?
If it helps, the hint from the source code:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=blob;f=src/backend/port/sysv_sema.c;h=f6f15169200a03e9da46ae348994f04297d22017;hb=HEAD
"This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space. It
occurs when either the system limit for the maximum number of semaphore
sets (SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of semaphores (SEMMNS),
would be exceeded. You need to raise the respective kernel parameter.
Alternatively, reduce PostgreSQL's consumption of semaphores by reducing
its max_connections parameter.
The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about configuring
your system for PostgreSQL."
