That's good. Does it really work?  When I looked at the Intel compiler
a while ago, it didn't support exceptions in a thread safe way. That
has the effect that omniORB appears to work, but then mysteriously
blows up at seemingly random times.

One way to be reasonably sure it's ok is to write a client to the echo
server that starts lots of threads calling the server simultaneously.
Then kill the client. If the server doesn't die, exception handling is
probably thread safe. If the server dies, it's because the wrong
threads got the exceptions.

Cheers,

Duncan.
