POSIX message queues are a general mechanism, every program can use 
them.  They are much faster than the SysV message queues.

The filesystem is mainly used to clean up.  Message queues can have 
names and they stay around, unless removed, if the processes using them 
are going away.  Not everybody should have permission to do everything 
on the filesystem but message queues have owners and those owners must 
be able to remove them.
