Re: msgrcv(4, system interrupted call)

This is not considered an error. This occurs when msgrcv() is set to wait until a message is received (as opposed to returninging immediately if not message is available) and then process receives a signal. It means that a SIGINT, SIGQUIT, SIGTERM, SIGPIPE, ... was received while the process was blocked on msgrcv(). The application code (if well wriiten) should consider this a normal event and deal with it appropriately.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.
