shm_open probably works differently under FreeBDS. I don't have access to such system and hence not able to debug or reproduce your error. If you can, you might want you look at the C code and try to debug it. For now, I am not going to be able to fix that issue. Sorry.

Not a big problem to me since program works ok. I was curious about why tests fails and some times this tests are important to check imcompatibilities on different OSes.

If you wanna give a try to run FreeBSD in a VM, you can get it from here:

Thanks!

Maybe some clues could be taken in manual:
