I know it's somewhat weird that anyone would use an ancient version of
open source software. 
My situation is I'm building customization for a software pack which
includes omni ORB3.0.4. I cannot change the "core" software, but only
build additional features / UIs for it. That's why I'm using VC8 and
3.0.4.
