+ This returns a number that is updated when ACKs are received from the peer
+ (notably including PING RESPONSE ACKs which we can elicit by sending PING
+ ACKs to see if the call still exists on the server). The caller should
+ compare the numbers of two calls to see if the call is still alive after
+ waiting for a suitable interval.
+
+ This allows the caller to work out if the server is still contactable and
+ if the call is still alive on the server whilst waiting for the server to
+ process a client operation.
+
+ This function may transmit a PING ACK.
