I took a quick look.  What we are doing is specifiying a message queue of:

com.ibm.as400.access.MessageQueue.CURRENT

I would have expected this to use the *MSGQ specified in your *USRPRF. But 
you are correct, according to the JavaDoc it assumes the *MSGQ is the same 
name as your profile and located in QUSRSYS.
