+We worked out that buildbot was blowing away the shared memory file in
+mono/runtime/.wapi, therefore needing to create a new semaphore each
+time.  After a while, it runs out of semaphores and semget() returns
+ENOSPC.  The runtime was looping at that point trying to get a new
+semaphore over and over.
+
+I've added an error message, and a tool for deleting the semaphore. 
+This tool should be added to the Makefiles somewhere to clean up when
+the mono/runtime/ dir is cleaned.
