I think infinity is the right solution: The only common case where infinity is wrong would be Android - and Android disables sysv shm entirely.
There are two patches: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=139730332306185&q=raw http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=139727299800644&q=raw
Could you apply one of them? I wrote the first one, thus I'm biased which one is better.
