(amqp_client at i)13> amqp_channel:call(C, #'exchange.declare'{exchange = 
<<"amq.test">>}).
** exception exit: {{shutdown,
                         {server_initiated_close,403,
                             <<"ACCESS_REFUSED - exchange name 
'amq.test' contains reserved prefix 'amq.*'">>}},

So, as expected, this doesn't work.
