[omniORB] Re: execv fails under POA, works under BOA

[Dietmar May]

Hello,

The fork/execv also fails under the BOA in a more complex application - 
I'm guessing following object activation (_obj_is_ready()). I'll try to 
develop a simple test case to reproduce this, when I have time. At the 
moment, however, I guess I need to focus on finding a workaround :-(.
