OK.

You shouldn't need to do this, but it shouldn't hurt.

What exception do you get?  The IfR is not involved at all in a DII
call, so you can't be getting an exception from that. I've just tried
an example, by modifying the omniORB DII example, and it works fine
for me.

Can you post a more complete code example that shows the problem?
