OK, I'm working around this for now by wrapping the routine in a FuncStream:

Prt : Prout {
	asStream {
		var	stream = super.asStream;
		^FuncStream({ |inval|
			inval.notNil.if({ stream.next(inval) });
		});
	}
}

It would be nice to leverage the cleanliness of embedInStream, though.

Can anyone think of a better solution?
