System V IPC Message Queues and Shared Memory?

I'm curious: does cygwin support the msgget, msgsnd, msgrcv & msgctl
functions from System V IPC?

The sample code I downloaded from the www.wrox.com (for the book Beginning
Linux Programming 3rd Edition chapter 14) compiles with no errors bug causes
a "5032 Bad System call".

Should these functions work?

And what about shared memory using shmget, shmat, shmdt, shmctl?
The sample code compiles with these functions too but gives a " 2764 Bad
system call " and " 4480 Bad system call" when I run them.
Should these work?

Thanks,
Siegfried
