It really isn't a "weird" reason.  These objects are persistent.  Do you want
all your virtual memory hogged by a process that runs amok?  It is trivial to
add the "echo 1000000000 > /proc/sys/kernle/shmmax" to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local
script, to make it automatically huge, after every system restart.
