ipccrt seems needlessly telegraphic to me.   If we're going to
abbreviate "create" we could always use "creat".      However, if
we're to have a dedicated tool, my personal preference would be for
"mkipc -M" and "mkipc -Q", which would be somewhat along the lines of
both ipcrm and mknod.

However, it also seems reasonable to call the command "ipc" and give
it the capability of removing things too:

ipc create -Q key
ipc rm -Q key (like ipcrm -Q)
ipc ls -M (like ipcs -m)
ipc ls -Q (like ipcs -q)
