That is part of the CORBA messaging specification. omniORB does not
support it. Having said that, omniORB's behaviour with oneways is the
same as sync_with_transport.

Anyway, sync_with_transport does not guarantee that the client won't
block, since the call may block in the transport, waiting for
transmission resources.
