[omniORB] Interesting nameclt behavior

[Gary D. Duzan]

   When attempting an unbind of an object in the name service, it
complains of a COMM_FAILURE. The guilty call seems to be
CosNaming::NamingContext::_narrow(obj), which is trying to verify that
the the object (which it first resolves) is not a naming context.
However, the bound object does not exist, so the _narrow() fails, and
the exception is only caught in the one large try block around
everything.  My feeling would be that if the _narrow() fails, than it
should be (relatively) safe to try the unbind() anyway, and unless it
does, nameclt can't be used to clean out dead IORs.
   Has anyone else run into this?
