Actually, omniORB's IDL compiler has these options:
   -Wbh=<suffix>     Specify suffix for generated header files
   -Wbs=<suffix>     Specify suffix for generated stub files
   -Wbd=<suffix>     Specify suffix for generated dynamic files

(the above was copy & pasted from the output of "omniidl -bcxx -u").
