[omniORB] Problems porting omniORB2.

[Sai-Lai Lo]

It is difficult to tell why omniNames segv on startup. The most likely
cause is a bug in your compiler. AFAIK, omniORB2 has been ported to
UnixWare with g++ 2.7.1. What compiler are you using?

How about eg1, eg2_clt, eg2_impl, do they work? 

As for using gdb, you are debugging a multithreaded program, the SIGWAITING
may well be what gdb uses to block all the threads.
