I think FC3 does have it.  That is what I am running and this is what I
see

[jeff at eye_gore ~]$ df -m
Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
none                       633         0       633   0% /dev/shm

The only thing different from what was posted by Matt is that this shows
the filesystem as "none" instead of "/dev/shm"
