  When a Get_Handler task is done with the Get, does it do a Get_Line
to see if the socket is persistent, and if so, what is the next request?
  If the server does the Get_Line that determines whether the next request
is a Get or a Post, how does it handle the next request on a persistent
connection?  The server must be coded to wait, not simply for an accept()
to unblock, but for either an accept() unblock OR a worker task finishing
and handing back the (still potentially live) socket.
