I'm being a bit pedantic but ... the OMG IDL files are provided by the
OMG as a convenience for implementors and users.  Compliance is measured
against the specifications from which the IDL on those files was extracte=
d.
The file structure ... and that includes presence or absence of #includes=

of other files ... is not an OMG compliance point.

That having been said, it >>is<< a bad idea for the omniORB version of th=

CosEventChannelAdmin.idl file to #include another IDL file that is not us=
ed.
