Please check your CORBA server thread to see if it has any auto variables
or data members that are omniORB object references or object
implementations. It looks like the dtor of one or more of these objects are
called after orb->NP_destroy(). As I said before, this shouldn't happen and
the result is unpredictable.

If you can't find anything obvious, could you try to produce a test case
for me to reproduce your problem? One thing I know is that others have been
using omniORB in DLLs with no problem so at least there is a way to get it
to work.
