No, the thread won't go away until your code returns to omniORB and the
thread tries to send a reply across the now non-existent connection.

You might try running client and server with arguments -ORBtraceLevel 25
-ORBtraceInvocations 1 -ORBtraceThreadId 1 . That will show you what's
going on with the connections.
