The problem was that the TypeCode unmarshaller forgot to record the
offset when it saw the enum, so when the enum reappeared in the later
struct, it got confused. The problem only occurred for known enums --
if the receiving ORB did not already know the enum's TypeCode it
worked fine. The fact that the TypeCode was recursive didn't come into
it.

It's fixed in CVS.

Thanks!
