Unfortunately, I want to read the entire upload buffer before I suspend. 
Fortunately, this specific use case I'm trying to address would probably not 
fail too badly if I defer all reading until after the suspend/resume.
Therefore, I have modified my code to suspend during the initial call to the 
access handler callback (which also initialises *con_cls).

Unfortunately, I am not seeing any callback after I call 
MHD_resume_connection(). I do consistently get another callback immediately 
after MHD_suspend_connection(), however...

What do you return from the callback after you do MHD_suspend_connection? If I 
return MHD_NO, my connection gets closed, so I am returning MHD_YES for now.

My only difference here is not using a thread pool.
