Duncan,
I've submitted a CORBA revision issue related to this problem.
For what it is worth, the consensus so far on the <org_revision@omg.org>
mailing list is that:
1) The intent of the CORBA 2.2 & 2.3 DynAny specification is that
aliases should not be stripped.
2) Even if the text doesn't say this, there are sufficient hints
in the spec to imply this.
3) A DynAny implementation that does strip out aliases is broken.
4) However, the spec does need clarifying to spell this out.
I understand that this work will be done in the current RTF cycle.
