[omniORB] Memory Leaks in WinNT

[Guy Trudel]

They are not 'real' memory leaks, they are singleton and initialisation
stuff that must be there for the lifetime of the process. Once simple way to
get rid of lot of them is to temporary deactivate the memory allocation
check. 

    _CrtSetDbgFlag( ~_CRTDBG_ALLOC_MEM_DF );

    CORBA::ORB_ptr orb = CORBA::ORB_init(nArcg,ppArg,"omniORB2");
    CORBA::BOA_ptr boa = orb->BOA_init(nArcg,ppArg,"omniORB2_BOA");

    _CrtSetDbgFlag( _CRTDBG_ALLOC_MEM_DF );
