That won't work; server::start() gets called on the service manager thread, 
too, immediately after the ctor. The solution is going to require moving the 
creation of the server instance to where it can be done on a persistent 
thread. The parameters to server's ctor come from a configuration file (part 
of the elided code in my last post), so I could just as easily construct it 
in task_scheduler's ctor. Or maybe I'll have a better idea when I get some 
uninterrupted time to think about it.
