The necessary step is to mount the mqueue file system.  I have filed a 
bug in bugzilla a long time ago to mount it by default but this hasn't 
happened yet.

Just do by hand

mkdir /dev/mqueue
mount -t mqueue none /dev/mqueue

and then remove all the unused message queues using 'rm' from /dev/mqueue.
