If you dig into the debug settings in VC++, you'll find some options
about memory debugging. You have to set them correctly to match the
omniORB debug libraries. I can't remember the exact settings right
now, I'm afraid, and I don't have an easy way to check.

Yes, that's a leak since it allocates the object id sequence and you
never deallocate it.
