Title: Respect the max shared mem lists for postgresql.  Issue #597

This is based on this[1] patch to the open source server. I looked at [2] for guidance, though it doesn't say much about what to do on the upper end. It probably makes sense to have have some sort of hard ceiling, but I'm not sure where that should be.
