    Problem Text

    Our implementation defines shmget(key_t, int, int) as defined in
    SVID issue 2. XPG4 defines it as shmget(key_t, size_t, int). According
    to the Interpretation Request VWG/031/091192, either definition is
    acceptable. VWG/031/091192 also directed no change to the testsuite,
    thus a permanent interpretation is requested for our implementation.

    /tset/XPG4.hdr/misc/shm/T.shm 8 Failed

    Test Description:
    The header file contains a prototype form function declaration for
    shmget().

    Test Strategy:
    UNDEFINE macro version of shmget()
    COMPARE return value against item of the same type.
    USE return value as an array reference.
    ASSIGN return value to an item of the same type.
    ASSIGN address of function to item of the same type.
    IF prototype testing is required
    VERIFY a prototype exists
    SUPPLY a correct prototype
