It looks just correct IMHO. Just one question: how about << method?
Currently it behaves as POSIX_MQ#send method (raises in non-blocking
mode id it cannot write) but it returns the POSIX_MQ instance itself
when success. I suggest that it could return true on success (as you
suggest for send method).
However it could also possible that << would behave as trysend
(returning true/false), but it would break backward compatiiblity.

Sure.

I don't check it as for now it doesn't make sense (nil says nothing,
and I already rescue the possible exceptions).
Regards.
