PortableServer.POA.servant_to_id() method spec says:
"
11.3.8.20 servant_to_id
...

3. If the POA has the USE_DEFAULT_SERVANT policy, the servant specified is the default servant, and the operation is being invoked in the context of executing a request on the default servant, then the ObjectId associated with the current invocation is returned.
"

But the method throws ServantNotActive exception with USE_DEFAULT_SERVANT
policy.
