ORBit-0.5.12 does not support this yet (orb.c):

/* Section 4.9.1 */
CORBA_boolean CORBA_ORB_work_pending(CORBA_ORB orb, CORBA_Environment *ev)
{
    g_assert(!"Not yet implemented");
    return(CORBA_FALSE);
}

/* Section 4.9.2 */
void CORBA_ORB_perform_work(CORBA_ORB orb, CORBA_Environment *ev)
{
    g_assert(!"Not yet implemented");
    return;
}

Which rules this out unless you want to use the gtk mainloop?

Take care,
