I found the culprit on why only the first message is received... the
client code had become a bit entangled and I lost the fact that the
program is set to terminate once data is sent.  Naturally doing this
impedes the sending of the remaining messages.

Is there a way to make the program terminate once all the messages are
received?  I'm sure a simple solution would be to receive a message from
the service, but since the service-to-client message queue is created
within the API which is a separate library, is it safe to call
`GNUNET_SCHEDULER_shutdown_now' from there?

Thanks,
