Ouch.  I didn't expect that.  In case you're interested in a summary 
paper on shim6, take a look at a newer version (at publication 
accepted):

    http://staff.csc.fi/psavola/shim6.pdf

It isn't as good as I'd have hoped, and describes a moving target, but 
it should give a hopefully short and relatively concise summary.

Unfortunately, it _doesn't_ describe how to solve the problems that 
Randy was referring to... :-)
