This is an example where to get rid of the warning would make the code
really ugly.

I think this is gcc being dumb. It's casting a literal integer zero
(or sometimes 1) to a pointer type. The fact that it's a literal ought
to suppress the warning, I would say. If you can come up with a clean
way to suppress the warning, that would be good.

Send the patches to the omniORB-dev list, unless they are huge, in
which case send them just to me.

Cheers,

Duncan.
