man-pages version 3.22, Gentoo linux
$ man shm_overview
In the NOTES section, second sentence:
"
System V shared memory (shmget(2), shmop(2), etc.) is an older semaphore
API.
"
It's not a semaphore API, it's a shared memory API.
Perhaps this is a paste-o from the sem_overview man page.

Thanks. Fixed for man-pages-3.27.
