The sender side stays of course the same, no modifications needed.

That's what I meant: We would have to insert sys_mbox_msg_free() or something 
throughout the code where sys_(arch_)mbox_get() is used after we are finished 
with the messages. I don't know for sure this would be the only necessary 
modification for multiprocessing, but I guess so.
