That means it unexpectedly failed to handle a readable connection. As
the comment in the code says, it "should never happen". If it can't
start a thread at that stage, it should queue the request.

Can you run with -ORBtraceLevel 25 and reproduce the issue?

What kind of system is this?  Does it have a very limited amount of
memory?  Is it 32 or 64 bit?
