Comment 1 for bug 1443612

If apps are going to get their own /tmp/, shouldn't we do the same
with /dev/shm/ ?

The manpage says the argument to shm_open should be an object name of
the form /somename; adding a directory in there seems to be off-spec
(it'll work, no doubt, because it's just a filename on a tmpfs,
but...)

Maybe, if they don't get their own /dev/shm, we want to override
shm_open and friends to prepend that?

(things creating files in /dev/shm by hand deserve to keep the pieces
when things break, but people doing it properly should carry on
working, surely?)
