The shmop functions really require the ftok() hashing function to generate keys for shared memory blocks. Unfortunately, this function lives in the System V shm/semaphore package, which of course doesn't exist on Windows. Having a theoretically portable module be dependent on a non-portable one doesn't seem optimal here. Can this be fixed in source, and does anyone have a temporary workaround in the meantime?
