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.
