IPC is an inter-process communication mechanism. Since no secondaries
can ever be expected to run in no-shconf mode, IPC will be useless, so
do not enable it in the first place. In the interests of API usage
convenience, we will still allow registering callbacks, but obviously
they won't ever be triggered.
