One tiny problem. had to manually remove shm/sem. w/o doing so, restarting
hobbitd failed with errors similar to bumping into 'ulimit'. It is
4.2-RC-20060712 w/o patch on a CentOS 4.3 server.
2006-08-08 12:21:51 Could not get shm of size 1048576: Invalid argument
2006-08-08 12:21:51 Cannot setup clichg channel
2006-08-08 12:21:51 Task hobbitd terminated, status 1
