The existence of object references has no effect on the lifecycle of an
object implementation.

This would imply that you have tried to 'delete' a servant.  You can only
do this if:
  1. it is not activated in any object adapter
  2. _and_ it is not derived from RefCountServantBase

This implies that your servant _is_ derived from RefCountServantBase.
Therefore you must not ever try to delete it.  It will be deleted once you
have deactivated it and the reference count has gone to zero.


Hope that helps,
