I don't know why year2038 should depend on sys_shm etc. But whatever the reason, let's remove those dependencies as they're more likely to cause problems than cure them. year2038 needs to depend on largefile, due to the way _TIME_BITS works. But it shouldn't need to depend on the other modules.
I suppose it would be OK for sys_shm etc. to depend on year2038, if there's some concern about one module being used without the other. Still, that seems like a bit of an imposition, as I assume some packages are not worried about the year2038 issue (they don't intend to be run on obsolescent 32-bit platforms) and so won't want to use year2038.
