[omniORB] orb shutdown hangs (II)

[Renzo Tomaselli]

Hi,
    as an addendum to my previous posting: my feeling is that something like
"pd_nconnections--;" is missing in giopServer.cc at line #473, since the
only other context where this counter is decremented is from cdRemove() -
never reached in this context.
