    #define MSGMNI 16 /* <= IPCMNI */ /* max # of msg queue identifiers */
    -#define MSGMAX 8192 /* <= INT_MAX */ /* max size of message (bytes) */
    -#define MSGMNB 16384 /* <= INT_MAX */ /* default max size of a message queue */
    +#define MSGMAX 65536 /* <= INT_MAX */ /* max size of message (bytes) */
    +#define MSGMNB 65536 /* <= INT_MAX */ /* default max size of a message queue */
