As I said previously, there are many SysV IPC tests that do expect that
nobody will add/remove IPC shm/queue/semaphores during the testrun and
some of the testcases cannot even be implemented without this
expectation.

Hence I wouldn't complicate the test here and just count how many
segments are there at the start and be done with it.
