There's no configuration option to remove the BOA support. It's tiny, so
I don't think it will make the omniORB library much smaller, and it
probably won't save any significant memory because most modern operating
systems demand page libraries into memory so if it's not used it won't
be paged in. It won't make anything any faster, either, and you're more
likely to introduce bugs taking it out than by leaving it in.

Having said that, feel free to provide a patch that makes it optional
and I'll consider integrating it.

Cheers,

Duncan.
