libshbuf
libshbuf introduces a new IPC concept: the "shared buffer", a more flexible and faster alternative for standard Unix FIFOs. Take some shared memory, flavour it with semaphore-based locking and change notifications, and refine it with an easy-to-use API and you get libshbuf's "shared buffers".

Re: Licensing is entangled
Sorry. The license is LGPL. The file headers are bogus. I guess I have to update that. The next release will contain corrected headers.
Licensing is entangled
Something to point out...
The source directory for libshbuf contains a GNU LGPL license file (COPYING). The project is also marked under a LGPL license on freshmeat and the project page at sourceforge... however, the source files in src all have GNU GPL headers.
