Just curious: Would it have made your job simpler if OmniORB
had a C language binding? I was looking at ORBit, which
seems to be the only ORB with C bindings. However, they
have not maintained their Win32 port and never integrated
it into their main source tree, so the current version
is basically Linux only.

I know. :-(
