[omniORB] Newbie - Compiler Error on MacOSX for Echo Tutorial

[Bill Noon]

I have built and have been running v4.0 for some time on both OSX 
10.1.5 and 10.2.x with just a couple of issues that I haven't tracked 
down.

I configured and built in a separate directory: ../omni/configure 
--disable-static --enable-thread-tracing --with-openssl=/usr 
--with-omniORB-config=/usr/local/etc/omniORB.cfg

It is installed in /usr/local.  I had to manually move the python code 
from /usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages since I am using the 
framework build (lives in /Library/Framework....).

I needed to --enable-thread-tracing since there was some problem (that 
I didn't have time to track down at the time) with 
OMNIORB_ENABLE_LOCK_TRACES in omniORBpy.

You also have to set DYLD_BIND_AT_LAUNCH (even with gcc 3.1) for the 
python backend to work (all the static inits aren't called otherwise).

Given the above, the echo examples build fine out of box.  The eg1 and 
eg2 examples work fine.  The eg3  examples failed since I am not 
running a NameService.
