Before accusing Microport of anything, it would be a good idea 
to lint your program first, then flame about the example program.

    function argument ( number ) used inconsistently
	msgget( arg 1 )   	llib-lc(84) :: example.c(55)
	msgsnd( arg 2 )   	llib-lc(86) :: example.c(68)
	msgsnd( arg 3 )   	llib-lc(86) :: example.c(68)
	msgctl( arg 3 )   	llib-lc(82) :: example.c(74)
