Oh dear -- it looks like the exception is not being caught when it
should. One thing to check is that your gcc for PowerPC was configured
with --enable-threads. That error is the sort of thing that happens if
gcc has generated exception handling code that isn't thread safe.

I don't think it's anything to worry about that the
giopStream::CommFailure is coming form different places in the two
cases -- the first case it comes as the result of a GIOP
CloseConnection message; in the second, the TCP connection was closed
before the CloseConnection arrived. That doesn't matter.

Cheers,

Duncan.
