If not, would I ask these questions? ;)
Yes, there are problems, first, for our testing environment. If user A
runs a Squid test, it creates these files. Now, no one else than user A
can run tests since the files are owned by user A.

Because we're doing this for years. We use several complete independent
instances on different ports on the same machine...
Now, every instance suddenly wants to create the same files at the same
location...

At the moment, I patched the configure.ac file to prevent the setting of
HAVE_SHM. Seems to run fine as far as I have tested.
