and quitting pd might _not_ free the shm-segments, since the destructors 
of the objects are not called. (which is a pd bug).

you either have to "properly" close the pd-patch or free the 
shm-segments with an external application (on linux (and afaik some 
bsd's) this is "ipcrm", probably on osX too)
