We're trying to use the same setup (Solaris 7 sparc, gcc 2.95.2). While
omniORB 2.8.0 seems to 
compile ok, none of our programs (even the eg1_clt.cc etc. example
stuff) seem to work (they all seg-fault). I think the problem may be
with the build of gcc: can you tell me which options you used to build
your gcc?
