We have used omniorb (2.7- 3.04) in many projects and the reliability of
omniorb-oneways is not good enough for us - we lost calls especially when
the receiving service was under heavy load. So we have redesigned a whole
important interface to get rid of the oneways. 
So from my experience - don't rely on it - and a call you don't rely on is
maybe a call you don't need at all.
