So lets say you have multiple read and 1 write message.  These changes will send
a EOT/FLUSH for all reads.  I think the intent here was that the last read
message (not the last message) would have the EOT+FLUSH.  Can there be an issue
with sending EOT/FLUSH for all reads?  And how does this mesh up with the BAM
signaling?
