I have never seen this error, but do have a suggestion...
    The new release of omniORB 3 should compile "out of the box" on 
FreeBSD. This isn't in the FreeBSD ports tree but should be just as 
easy to get running. I compiled (and am using) omniORB3 and omniORBpy1 
using the x86_freebsd_3.2 makefile on FreeBSD 3.3. In addition, there 
is a x86_freebsd_4.0 makefile which Duncan Grisby made and tested on 
4.0.
    Just a suggestion, as this might be an easier way to go (plus you 
get all the advantages of omniORB 3.0 :-).
