DESCRIPTION
This object is used when it is neccessary to make asynchronous method
calls. It provides the means to be notified when the reply is finally

is a reference to the raw C pending call object.
$call->cancel

to be discarded.
my $boolean = $call->get_completed

or a timeout has occurred.
$call->block

occurrs.
my $msg
= $call->get_reply;

call completes. The callback will be passed a single argument
which is this pending call object.
