[omniORB] Building OmniOrb 3.04 on HPUX version 11.0

[Sai-Lai Lo]

Have you read <top>/README.hpux11? You can't just use a vanilla python
because HPUX's dlopen cannot load any library that contains thread local
storage. You can either rebuild your python and compile the main function
with aCC or you just grab the minimal python (omnipython) for hpux 11 from
our ftp server.
