[omniORB] multiple servers, single client

[Richard Hardgrave]

We sort of do something like that because we have multiple identical
servants that use non-reentrant libs.  I don't know if there's a
feature that will do this with less work, but we just have a servant
that "manages" multiple identical servants.  When the client requests
one of these, the servant manager passes it the IOR.  To keep things
neat, the manager is also notified by the client when the client is
finished with its servant.  Whether you want to have the manager
instantiate the servants on the fly or have a pool of them available
is up to you.

client to specify which server it wants to contact?
