I don't ... I end up compiling them individually.  I haven't had any
responses from the list so I guess it just doesn't work.

My problem is actually with interoperability.  My client is
VisiBroker for Java and my servers are omniORB.  When I
try to narrow any of my objects Visibroker complains because
the InterfaceId is not what they would expect it to be.

It ends up that my workaround is editing the stubs that
are generated from the IDL compiler and modifying the
InterfaceId's that are assigned to each object.  I
just prepend a "modulename/" to the string that is=20
produced from omniORB and everything works fine.

I might be able to put a:
#pragma ID ".../..." in the IDL file ... but, maybe
because of laziness ... or I that expect the include
files to work correctly ... I haven't tried it.=20
