I think it would be better to add checks to disallow the use of IPC 
primitives created in one jail from another.
Thus we will avoid allocating separate segments of kernel memory for
each jail.

It could be trivially achieved by adding another field to struct ipc_perm,
but Robert Watson said he knows another way of doing this without
breaking ABI (if I understood him right).
