[erlang-questions] SysV IPC

[Paul Mineiro]

If it hasn't been done already, one could make a linked-in driver to front
the sysv API.  One would have to use threads to avoid blocking the
emulator in some cases, but nonblocking operations could be done with a
port_control and could be reasonably zippy.

It sounds straightforward, albeit tedious.
