The kernel developers have stated that for Linux to use Posix shared memory, a tmpfs filesystem MUST be mounted at /dev/shm
Adding the following line to fstab will accomplish this:
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

Now that I'm an editor, I'll take on ownership of this bug myself. This will be the first thing I fix as an editor :)

We'll also need to have the MAKEDEV script do a mkdir /dev/shm - this directory is created on the fly for devfs, but will need to be created for a static /dev.
