I found that the reason I was able to build omniidl2 in 2.7.1 was
that I had changed a few things.

Making the same changes in the 2.8.0 pre-release resulted in success!


1.  In the file: omniORB_280pre1/include/CORBA_sysdep.h

    Add the following line to the section for __SUNPRO_CC >= 0x500
	#define HAS_Cplusplus_Bool

2. In the file: omniORB_280pre1/mk/platforms/sun4_sosV_5.6.mk 
	(or other OS version)

    Change
	CXXDEBUGFLAGS = -O2
    to
	CXXDEBUGFLAGS = -O2 -g

    And change
	OMNIORB_CONFIG_DEFAULT_LOCATION = /etc/omniORB.cfg
    to
	OMNIORB_CONFIG_DEFAULT_LOCATION = \"/etc/omniORB.cfg\"

   It was the missing -g compiler option which causes the mysterious link
errors:
	__SLIP.DELETER__C
	omniORB2_be/libomniORB2_be.a(o2be_predefined_type.o)
	__SLIP.DELETER__D
omniORB2_be/libomniORB2_be.a(o2be_enum.o)
	__SLIP.DELETER__E

Best wishes,
