No, it should work fine in 2.8.  It looks like you are mixing code
compiled with debugging and code without.  I think omniORB is compiled
without debugging info, and I expect you program is being compiled with
debugging info.  The any is allocated using a normal allocator inside
omniORB, and deallocated using a debugging allocator inside your
application code, and it so it gets confused.

Try disabling the debugging stuff, or re-compile omniORB with the
debugging enabled.
