That error occurs when the version of python on your path is different
from the one omniidl was compiled with. Either make sure the right
version of python is on your path first, or edit the first line of
omniidlrun.py to explicitly use the right version.

omniORB 4 doesn't have this problem, since the configure script edits
omniidlrun.py for you.

Cheers,

Duncan.
