The systems without XSHM would be native Windows.. Linux, BSD, Solaris, and Mac with X installed are all good to go..

It will even run on android with X installed.

That's not entirely complete. When working with a non-local X server, XSHM would not be available. I think most users would be okay with degraded performance under such cases, but I think we should try and not break things completely.

Also, when running recursive X servers, not all will support XSHM. These include VNC, which is still sometimes used for remote access.
