It added the following error message.

+       seg = dsm_attach(handle);
+       if (!seg)
+               ereport(ERROR,
+                               
(errcode(ERRCODE_OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE),
+                                errmsg("unable to map dynamic shared memory 
segment")));

On the other hand we already have the following one in parallel.c
(another in pg_prewarm)

        seg = dsm_attach(DatumGetUInt32(main_arg));
        if (seg == NULL)
                ereport(ERROR,
                                
(errcode(ERRCODE_OBJECT_NOT_IN_PREREQUISITE_STATE),
                                 errmsg("could not map dynamic shared memory 
segment")));

Although I don't see a technical difference between the two, all the
other occurances including the just above (except test_shm_mq) use
"could not". A faint memory in my non-durable memory tells me that we
have a policy that we use "can/could not" than "unable".

(Mmm. I find ones in StartBackgroundWorker and sepgsql_client_auth.)

Shouldn't we use the latter than the former?  If that's true, it seems
to me that test_shm_mq also needs the same amendment to avoid the same
mistake in future.
