Comment:

 The default value should be in the mdb entry description, not in the
 source code. Assigning default values explicitly in the source code leads
 to two problems:
 1. Different routines in the source code may assign different default
 values
 2. Each routine inquiring about the queue has to have code that checks
 whether the "queue" entry exists, and if not, has to assign the default
 value.

 If the mdb supplies a default value, then each routine can simply access
 the "queue" mdb entry and be assured that such an entry exists and has a
 legal value.
