Yes, I believe this, but there is still something strange then, the IDL
files (*exactly* the same) compile perfect on Linux with omniORB and on
Solaris with Orbix 2.2 MT. 
So there must be something else too, or maybe Orbix uses for its IDL
compiling another preprocessor and the Linux preprocessor doesn't have
this problem, I don't know...

Thanx to all the helping people.
