   *                 queue and order the method requests. If this argument
   *                 is 0, a new ACE_Message_Queue is created for this
   *                 object's use and will be deleted when this object is
   *                 destroyed. If a non-zero pointer is supplied, the
   *                 passed object will be used and will not be deleted when
   *                 this object is destroyed. If an ACE_Task is being created
   *                 to act as the scheduler, for instance, its
   *                 ACE_Message_Queue pointer can be passed to this object.

   *                 ACE_Message_Block instances that wrap the method requests
   *                 queued to this activation queue. Defaults to

   *                 wrap the method requests queued to this activation queue.
