Implementation of POSIX mqueues in Linux 2.6

Hi there,
I find little documentation on the actual implementation of POSIX message queues in Linux, and need some advise. In
particular, I am wondering whether it supports inter-process *and* inter-thread
communication, and if can I manage to use shared memory pools for zero-copy messaging in case of inter-process
communication. On more thing: kernel's "make menuconfig" of version 2.6.11 says :

>> To use this feature you will also need mqueue library, available

>> from <... a URL ... to M. Wronski's and K. Benedyczak's home page>"

Is it still up to date ?

Thank you very much for your advise !

G.
