The question I usually use to try to figure these things out is: "Would
Sun fix this if it was reported as a bug?"

If they wouldn't fix it, we should be compatible with their
implementation instead of the spec.

I know too little about CORBA to answer the question in this case, but
maybe it is helpful for you to decide what to do.
