broker delivers messages out of order

                 Key: QPID-572
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-572
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
            Reporter: Rafael H. Schloming


ConcurrentSelectorDeliveryManager will sometimes deliver messages out of order. 
This is caused by the code in deliver(...) that attempts to short-circuit 
message queuing when there is an available subscription. This code can result 
in the currently published message skipping ahead of queued messages causing 
out of order delivery. Although unrelated to transactions, I have observed this 
failure occuring in TransactedTest both in testCommit and testRollback. 
Normally it does not happen very frequently, however placing a 
Thread.sleep(500) in the async delivery thread will cause the failure to occur 
almost all the time.

I tried fixing the problem by only attempting synchronous delivery when there 
are no queued messages, however this appears to break other tests that use 
selectors. This makes me suspect that the selector implementation is somehow 
incorrectly coupled to synchronous delivery.

I have only verfied this issue on the trunk, however I believe it effects M2 as 
well.
