Others have pointed out the danger of using a (non-static) member
function as a C function pointer. You should definitely not do that.

I just want to point out that in omniORB there is no need to call
ORB::run() at all. The ORB dispatches requests on its own threads, so
there is no need to call run() if you have other things to do.

Cheers,

Duncan.
