MAXMSG_CLIENT seems to need to allocate a shared memory segment of equal size. If your kernel shared memory settings are set too low (eg. if you are running defaults on solaris) then you may not be able to allocate the segment. If that happens, things like you just described seem to happen...
you could possibly have dangling segments left over that were not cleaned up when you restarted hobbit, or possibly another app.
Try checking what is allocated with "ipcs -a", and increasing the parameter "shmmax".
