I don't love the use of "magic numbers". Also the compiler considers the 
signed integers to be −2147483648 to 2147483647 so including the sign that 
is potentially up to 11 chars, plus our string is "/syncmsg" is 8 chars
so that's where the 19 comes from. However we are using the int to 
represent threads, so we know we can't have a negative number. However 
sprintf also adds '\n' which brings us back to 19 again anyway.

This is better than what we have, so
