I think there has been a change to Solaris to require new permissions to
change thread priorities. Perhaps you are in a position to confirm or
deny that?

omniORB doesn't actually make use of thread priorities, so you can
disable omnithread's support for them. Try the attached patch. You need
to re-run the configure script after this. Does it work?

Cheers,

Duncan.
