     * @class TP_Queue
     *
     * @brief Queue of servant requests that need to be dispatched.
     *
     * This is the queue of pending servant requests that is "owned"
     * by a TP_Strategy object.  When an ORB thread dispatches
     * a servant request to the strategy object, it will create the
     * appropriate (subclass of) TP_Request object to "wrap"
     * the servant request in a "queue-friendly" wrapper.  The ORB thread
     * will then place the TP_Request object on to the queue.  Note that
     * this scenario pertains to what are being called "remote requests".
     * There are other scenarios in which other types of requests can
     * get added to this queue.
     *
     * The strategy object will employ a set of worker threads that are
     * responsible for "servicing" the servant requests in the queue.
     *
     * Note: In the future, support will be added to allow the client
     *       application inject "custom" TP_Request objects into
     *       a TP_Strategy object, causing them to be placed in
     *       the queue.
