Generally speaking, queues can remain in an inconsistent state after a process crash (because the process might have crashed just after acquiring a shared semaphore or sending part of a large message).  It's not obvious to me how we could make them safer, at least under Unix where there's no widely-available message-oriented communication facility that I know of.
