[omniORB] RPM: omniNames init script is not executable

Hi,

The RPM specfile in omniORB 4.0.3 generates a bootscript sub-RPM which
contains a non executable /etc/rc.d/init.d/omniNames startup script. As
a consequence, at least on RHEL 3, the 'service' command does not
recognize it as an init script: 
# service omniNames status
omniNames: unrecognized service

Setting the execute bit on the script resolves the problem. 

The omiORB.spec file says:
%config(noreplace) %_sysconfdir/rc.d/init.d/*

Any reason why the initscripts are declared 'config'? They are clearly
not config and most likely it causes rpmbuild to 'chmod -x' the files. 

Cheers,
