SYSVIPC is a pretty crucial feature that I doubt very much if anyone except embedded people should even consider disabling - it simply breaks too much software for a Linux box to really be useful without it, for most purposes. For that reason I find it quite odd that the feature defaults to 'No' currently. I really cannot see any reason why we wouldn't want this to default to 'Yes', so this patch changes the default by adding 'default y' to Kconfig.
