[omniORB] omniORBpy actions on missing servant method

[Jim Bell]

Thanks for the clarification and ideas. I see how the current behavior 
would be more useful in general, by design.  _omni_op_d sounds like what 
I'm looking for. I'll take a look.

Yes, I am trying to test a servant to verify that all IDL methods are 
present.

Thanks again,

-Jim
