[omniORB] Using pre-ISO C++ compiler to build omniorb 4.0

[Hautesserres, Thomas]

Hi Olivier,

I have had some problems with Python too when building omniORB 4.0
on solaris (with Sun Workshop 5.0).

To make it work, we had to:

- Install the minimal python package provided on the omniORB web site
  directly in the omniORB directory. See README file for that.
  Note: We didn't have any python installed on our machine. If you have
  one, you may skip this part.

- Set the PYTHON variable when calling the configure script, like in:

  ../configure
PYTHON=/home/diva/Tools/omniORB-4.0.0/bin/sun4_sosV_5.7/omnipython

Hope this helps,

Thomas
