Well it will work, but not very effectively.  It gets a problem off the
server, then works on it, then tries to send the problem back.  If it is
unsuccessful, it will keep trying, but in the meantime the program is
doing nothing.

(I had thought of rewriting the program so that it fetches several
problems at once - maybe I'll do that when I have time.)
