Sure it does, you just need to add the second service

The gateway can still make a synchronous call to a service defined with an mep of OneWay as, in the example above, it is a subsequent service which is responsible for sending the reply.  Your code will, erroneously, assume that it is oneway from the client's perspective when that is not the case.  It is the combination of the services which provide the request/response behaviour.
