At a quick glance, it looks as though if this could be set anywhere, it
would be by one of the files in /proc/sys/kernel. I don't know enough
about POSIX message queues to see if they could be used for your
purposes.
So if it's not there, you're probably reduced to hacking the source.
(Of course, this being the /proc filesystem, any changes won't last over
a boot: put something in /etc/rc.d/rc.local to re-apply changes after a
boot).
