Why not make it easier for the developers ;)

The actual changes that have gone on are fairly small. The structures
used for the sys5 message and shm objects have been split into a seperate
kernel and user visible object to avoid breaking binary compatibility. If
iBCS is just wrapping the sys_ipc*() calls then you want to use
old_msg_qbytes old_msg_cbytes instead of msg_qbytes/cbytes
