  // = TITLE
  //     Provides the interface between one or more Suppliers and the
  //     Event Server ACE_Stream.
  //
  // = DESCRIPTION
  //     This class normally sits on "bottom" of the Stream and sends
  //     all messages coming from Suppliers via its "write" <Task>
  //     "upstream" to all the Consumers connected to the
  //     <Consumer_Router>.  Normally, the messages flow up the
  //     stream to <Consumer_Router>s.  However, if Consumers
  //     transmit data to the <Consumer_Router>, we dutifully push it
  //     out to the Suppliers via the <Supplier_Router>.
  //
  //     When used on the "reader" side of a Stream, the
  //     <Supplier_Router> simply forwards all messages up the stream.
  //     When used on the "writer" side, the <Supplier_Router> queues
  //     up outgoing messages to suppliers and sends them in a
  //     separate thread.  The reason for this is that it's really an
  //     "error" for a <Supplier_Router> to send messages to
  //     Suppliers, so we don't expect this to happen very much.  When
  //     it does we use a separate thread to avoid taxing the main
  //     thread, which processes "normal" messages.
  //
  //     All of these methods are called via base class pointers by
  //     the <ACE_Stream> apparatus.  Therefore, we can put them in
  //     the protected section.
