I tried to build 980209 snapshot with egcs-980214 on AIX and I also have
problems with that throw, though egcs on AIX uses sjlj exceptions. So,
it seems that the problem is general. Do you receive more info about this
problem?

Andrey.

P.S. I'm sorry that I didn't built 980209 omniORB snapshot earlier. Also it
     seems that I'll test omniORB on AIX only with egcs, because I'll use
     egcs agressively in my own work.
