The AMQP xml spec marks methods with a 'synchronous="1"' when they are 
synchronous, *except* that many such methods can be turned into 
asynchronous ones by setting a 'nowait' field.

Not really. The 'nowait' flag mentioned above, plus features like being 
able to refer to the "most recently declared queue" are evidence of that.

Ah. That could trigger the bug Simon mentioned, causing the commit to 
get executed before the publish.
