mq_open Hanging

One of my program which uses posix message queues was hanging in mq_open() system call, and after some time, it threw an error "Interrupted system call". I couldnt even unlink that message queue using mq_unlink(), as I have to use mq_open() prior to mq_unlink().

I use SunOS 5.7 Generic_106541-22 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-4.

Pls help!

NAME
mq_unlink - Removes a message queue (P1003.1b) LIBRARY
Realtime Library (librt.so, librt.a) SYNOPSIS
#include <mqueue.h> int mq_unlink ( const char *name); PARAMETERS
*name Specifies a pointer to the pathname of a message queue. DESCRIPTION
The mq_unlink function removes a message queue named by the pathname. After a successful call to this function, subsequent calls to the mq_open function fail if they specify the queue identified by the name argument and the O_CREAT flag is not set. Close the connection to the queue with a call to the mq_close function before calling the mq_unlink function. If one or more processes have the message queue open when mq_unlink is called, destruction of the queue is postponed until all references to the message queue are removed. In this situation, the mq_unlink function returns immediately, without waiting for all queue references to be closed. RETURN VALUES
On successful completion, the function returns the value 0 (zero); otherwise, the function returns the value -1, sets errno to indicate the error, and the message queue remains. ERRORS
The mq_unlink function fails under the following conditions: [EACCES] Permission is denied to unlink the message queue. [ENAMETOOLONG] The length of the name string exceeds {NAME_MAX} while {_POSIX_NO_TRUNC} is in effect. [ENOENT] The named message queue does not exist. Additionally, any error that can be returned by the open or fstat file system calls can be returned by the mq_unlink function. RELATED INFORMATION
