.sh conforming to
posix.1-2001, posix.1-2008.
.pp
posix.1-2001 says that the group ownership of a newly created shared
memory object is set to either the calling process's effective group id
or "a system default group id".
posix.1-2008 says that the group ownership
may be set to either the calling process's effective group id
or, if the object is visible in the filesystem,
the group id of the parent directory.
.sh notes
posix leaves the behavior of the combination of
.b o_rdonly
and
.b o_trunc
unspecified.
on linux, this will successfully truncate an existing
shared memory object\(emthis may not be so on other unix systems.
