Now this is a mystery - for some reason your machine is not reading or 
accepting the file.  I had a spelling problem in mine on lion and it 
rejected the file (quietly) during the boot - but I do not see a 
spelling problem in yours.  What are the file owner, group, and 
permissions?  It may require   root, wheel, rw-r--r-- on the file.

If all else fails you can instruct aips not to use shared memory but I 
have our Mac expert (and the one with the big screen lion system) 
looking at this.  HELP XAS will tell you about the ~/.Xdefaults file 
that allows you to say do not use shared memory (among a lot of other 
things).
