[omniORB] Problem building the IDL file

[Haarek Ryeng]

Sounds familiar!
try running ..\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\Vcvars32.bat before
starting the IDL compiler.
If this helps - the VC++ 5.0 wasn't installed with all the necessary environment
variables set correctly, and the IDL compiler (using CL as a preprocessor) cannot
run CL.exe properly (outside MSDevStudio).
It is easy to forget to "tick of" for the system environment variables
installation on VC++ 5.0.
