It's not just the headers that are incompatible -- the compiled code
is incompatible too. You cannot mix C++ code compiled with VC++ with
code compiled with GCC.

The build process of omniORB requires cygwin tools. It does not use
the cygwin compiler.

omniORB 4.0.1 in theory works with cygwin, using the cygwin gcc. I
haven't tried it myself.
