[omniORB] omniORB 2.8 library problems on AIX 4.2

[mdonahue@McLeodUSA.com]

Has anyone seen this error

exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program omniNames because of the following errors:
        0509-022 Cannot load library
../../orbcore/sharedlib/libomniORB28.a.0[libomniORB2.so.8.0].
        0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not
exist.

When I dump the header information I get the following

I've tried manually linking omniNames to the libs to try and get rid of the
relative path hoping that would solve the problem.

I'm using G++ 2.95.2 and GNUMAKE 3.78.1...
