[omniORB] ORB initialization with endpoint leaks memory if initialization fails

To be clear, this is not valid.  The ORB is a singleton and cannot be
reinitialized.  What I was talking about was whether it was legal to
retry CORBA::ORB_init if it exits via exception.

If you truly terminate the application then you don't have to worry
about leaks.  Then you could pass in the port from the shell in a
loop.  This might be your only option.
