We made it a bonobo server to get async and threaded communication so we
could minimize blocking.  The actual bits a developer needs are straight
C, none of the bonobo bits (basically just the POA definition in the
instance struct) actually need to be wrapped.  For instance, the C#
bindings do this (they don't have a bonobo wrapper either).
