Before calling the reply function you could set the partner member of
the CORBA_Server_Environment parameter. This environment is passed to
the error function. In the error function you could then check the
partner member.

Or, there is a user_data member in the CORBA_Server_Environment, which
is of type void*. You could let it point to whatever data you need in
the error function.
