In general CLOSE should not close the component streams of a multiple
stream. A typical case I've run across is when one briefly creates
a broadcast stream that includes the terminal and a file. When the
broadcast stream is closed, the component streams do not want to be
closed, since they are likely to have uses beyond that of the broadcast
stream.
What's needed here is a function that takes a stream and returns a
list of component streams (if any).
