     * "Trf-Patch for filtering channels"
     *
     * This is the change to 'CloseChannel'.
     *
     * Explanation
     *          Closing a filtering channel closes the one it
     *          superceded too. This basically ripples through
     *          the whole chain of filters until it reaches
     *          the underlying normal channel.
     *
     *          This is done by reintegrating the superceded
     *          channel into the (thread) global list of open
     *          channels and then invoking a regular close.
     *          There is no need to handle the complexities of
     *          this process by ourselves.
     *
     *          *Note*
     *          This has to be done after the call to the
     *          'closeProc' of the filtering channel to allow
     *          that one to flush internal buffers into
     *          the underlying channel.

 *
 * TranslateOutputEOL --
 *
 *      Helper function for WriteBytes() and WriteChars().  Converts the
 *      '\n' characters in the source buffer into the appropriate EOL
 *      form specified by the output translation mode.
 *
 *      EOL translation stops either when the source buffer is empty
 *      or the output buffer is full.
 *
 *      When converting to CRLF mode and there is only 1 byte left in
 *      the output buffer, this routine stores the '\r' in the last
 *      byte and then stores the '\n' in the byte just past the end of the 
 *      buffer.  The caller is responsible for passing in a buffer that
 *      is large enough to hold the extra byte.
 *
 * Results:
 *      The return value is 1 if a '\n' was translated from the source
 *      buffer, or 0 otherwise -- this can be used by the caller to
 *      decide to flush a line-based channel even though the channel
 *      buffer is not full.
 *
 *      *dstLenPtr is filled with how many bytes of the output buffer
 *      were used.  As mentioned above, this can be one more that
 *      the output buffer's specified length if a CRLF was stored.
 *
 *      *srcLenPtr is filled with how many bytes of the source buffer
 *      were consumed.  
 *
 * Side effects:
 *      It may be obvious, but bears mentioning that when converting
 *      in CRLF mode (which requires two bytes of storage in the output
 *      buffer), the number of bytes consumed from the source buffer
 *      will be less than the number of bytes stored in the output buffer.
