[omniORB] discarded typecode data in DynAny

[Gary D. Duzan]

   I think the confusion here is between the omni2_8_0 CVS version
and the omni2_8_0_latest CVS version. The former has the code Roger
posted, while the latter has Sai-Lai's as shown below. Given the
date stamp on the 2.8.0 tar and the CVS log version dates, I'd
guess the tar contains the omni2_8_0 version, which doesn't have
the fix.
   So I guess the real answer is, it is fixed in omni2_8_0_latest.
Either check it out from CVS using that version tag or grab a
snapshot from:
