Lapo,

No, they cannot.  Harold has made it quite clear that he will not turn the
MIT-SHM module since SysV IPC memory services are not an official part of
cygwin yet.  Maybe once Conrad and I finish work on cygserver, then he
will turn it on.  But until that point, we are forced to keep a seperate
version for KDE.

Cheers,
Nicholas
