[omniORB] AIX 4.2 problem du semaine.

[Gary D. Duzan]

   That's just the way xlC is. Try compiling some template-rich code
with it sometime and you'll _really_ see some duplicate symbol
messages. Since they are just warnings, though, I've found it is
safe to ignore them. AIX's ld does more shuffling of code than your
typical linker, so it tend to take longer and complain about more.

=>Folks,
=>  While compiling the omniorb libraries I came across a problem.
=>  When linking, I get errors of the following kind:
