+/*! \brief Remove matching event from queue
+ *
+ * Each event in the queue will be checked to see whether it has a
+ * header equal to name whose value is equal to val.  If it does, that
+ * event will be returned unless the event is for an outbound caller.
+ * If name starts with '+' or remove == 2 then forcing is enabled and
+ * the event will be returned in any case.  If remove > 0 then the
+ * returned event will be removed from the queue and the remaining
+ * elements shifted to make them contiguous.
