omniORB 4.0.x doesn't support valuetype, so omniidl doesn't bother to
fully support it. It parses it, but not in a particularly useful way,
and the dumper doesn't have support for valuetype. If you get the
omni4_1_develop branch from CVS, you'll find that omniidl does fully
support valuetype (but that lots of other things are broken ;-) )

Cheers,

Duncan.
