Feel free to send a patch for the rest :-).

Setting the mq_maxmsg to BUFFER which is supposed to be constant for the
mq_msgsize is quite confusing and also prevents these tests from being
executed as ordinary user so I think that it's worth fixing.

Looking at the rest of the tests I guess the original author either did
not care that much or was clueless since it does not really make sense
to set mq_maxmsg to the same number as mq_msgsize in tests that send
just one or two message.

So we should either set it to 2 in all tests, or set it to 1 or 2
depending on how many messages test sends.
