WarpOS was always designed as a kernel running independently from AOS/68K.
This lead to the philosophy to try to avoid interconnections as much as
possible resp. reduce them to cross calls and cross messages.
WarpOS has its own message system and its own message ports, which work
independently from AOS/68K, therefore you can't use the PPC message
functions to query a 68K message port. You would have to call exec/GetMsg
to do that.
