[omniORB] HP-11.00 fix for 'unable to find shared library' problems

[Sai-Lai Lo]

Thanks for pointing this out.

"-Wl,+s" was specified as a linker flag for executables (in CXXLINKOPTIONS).
I think this makes SHLIB_PATH works for all executables. May be you are
using dlopen() directly to load the libraries?

Anyway, I've now checked in the necessary changes to the CVS and updated the
bug page.

Regards,

Sai-Lai
