This looks up the object bound to the global JNDI name someejb.

This looks up the object referenced by the ejb-ref named "ejb/someejb"
in the current bean context. This would have been defined in the
deployment descriptor for the bean invoking the lookup method. This
could refer to a bean with global JNDI of xyzbean. It can also be
changed without having to recompile the bean.
