I downloaded (the original) STonX-0.6.7-epsilon and ran into the 
same problem. The port doesn't address this problem either.

I looked into a linux box and this value is defined in
/usr/include/asm/shmparams.h (or something)
to:

#define SHMMAX 0x1000000

Defining this in x.c gets the compilation through but I'm not sure
if this is the right way to do it - probably not.

At least stonx can be started - but I can;t test it right now
unless I get a tos.img from somewhere.
