can tcp oneway failure go unnoticted?

I see in the documentation that oneway invocations only wait on the local tcp/ip stack and do not return socket failures. My question is: can a tcp oneway invocation on a proxy fail due to a SyscallException (or derived), but the proxy recovers, and proceeds without problem. My situation is that I want to be able to make non-blocking reliable invocations. Its ok to lose an invocation, but only if I know no subsequent reliable invocations will succeed. Is tcp oneway safe for this use or should I stick with two-way?
