Hi!
As recently discussed here the testcases/kernel/ipc/ipc_stress/ were not meant to be executed as a single testcases (as it's done in the ipc runtest file) but were designed to be executed from a single stress script. These testcases depends on each other and fail if the order of tests is randomized. They do not cleanup the System V resources at the end of the test, etc.

The code quality of these is quite low and the System V IPC is covered by the testcases in syscalls.

So I would like to get rid of these. Does anybody opposes the removal?
