Hi,

As far as I can see, all the volatile qualifiers in shm_mq.c have been
redundant since ec9037df263. Here's a patch to remove them (like
several similar patches -- see commit message). Does this make sense?
Is there something special about that pointer to volatile pointer to
PGPROC? If so I don't see it.
