[omniORB] Debugging under Linux

[Kevin Bailey]

I tried all those versions and they display the same symptoms.

Is there an alternative thread library/implementation that I
could compile omniORB with ? -pthread vs -lpthread doesn't
seem to make much difference.

If it helps, I'm using i586_linux_2.0_glibc2.1.mk on Mandrake 7.1.

Thanks,
krb
