Surely there are better ways to do this than changing your source with awk. If this is a once off change have a programmer use an editor.

If it varies a lot why not have another define variable for NUMPAGES this can be passed as a compile time option using -D NUMPAGES=7 or something similar. In the code you can even default to some sane value if this has not been setup eg:

Code:
#ifdef NUMPAGES
   #define SHMEMSIZE(4096 * NUMPAGES)
#else
   #define SHMEMSIZE(32768)
#endif
