Hm, yes in apr/apu is no switch to disable shm but it shoud be possible
to disable this in apache24.

In modules/aaa/mod_auth_digest.c there is the following construct which
can be interesting.

 #if APR_HAS_SHARED_MEMORY
 static int initialize_tables(server_rec *s, apr_pool_t *ctx)
  ...

I haven't investigated what will happen if SHM will be disabled.

Perhaps try the following parameter
 AuthDigestShmemSize = 0
