The maximum number of mq descriptors is set at compilation-time to be
128. Since the descriptors are allocated in increasing order, the last
queue descriptor value should be something like 127. To increase this
value of 128, you have to modify, in ksrc/skins/posix/module.c the call
to pse51_reg_pkg_init. Yes, there is a FIXME at this point, telling that
we should have added a Kconfig option, but I am afraid you are the first
that hits the issue and reports it. It will be fixed in the next release.
