[omniORB] patch against omniORB 3 [for IRIX 6.5]

[David Riddoch]

Hi James,


Since this problem doesn't effect the ORB core I've decided not to put the
feature test macro in CORBA_sysdep.h, but instead just the file where it
is needed.

The mod is in CVS -- let me know if you have any other problems.


Cheers,
David
