We have been doing something similar, but with static linking. It's been 
a while, but I believe you only need to modify the omniORB Makefiles to 
use the /MD runtime for building static libraries. Then the linking 
inside a mixed mode C++/CLI assembly works just fine.

I also vaguely recall a related, rather obscure crash/error in WinForms 
GUI apps, which happened only with VS2005 build... VS2008 fixed it, but 
there was a workaround for VS2005 as well. Post more details if you keep 
encountering it and I can try to check if its the same issue...

Best regards,
Sampo
