[omniORB] Updated bug list

  Thanks for the update.  

  Have you given any thought to exposing the maxStrands setting somehow
outside of the ORB code itself (e.g., through a command-line argument,
environment variable, etc.).  In order to permit more than 5
simultaneous connections between two ORB processes, we have increased
this hardcoded setting ourselves and rebuilt the ORB, but this
admittedly is not very elegant! :-)
