You've posted a trace of the marshalled data. You can unpick the data
according to the GIOP spec to see if that tells you anything. It's a
painful and probably unnecessary exercise, though.

You should post the IDL and code you are using. Without that, it's
impossible to offer any advice. How does your code compare with the
simple valuetype example in src/examples/valuetype/simple?

The place it's segfaulting is where it tries to call _add_ref on the
factory you have registered, which suggests that perhaps you have
released too many references on it, causing it to be prematurely
deleted.

Cheers,

Duncan.
