This talk of 64 bit makes me think that you are wanting to compile a 64
bit version of omniORB...

...but Python 36_32 sounds like you have a 32 bit version of Python.
You MUST use a 64 bit Python if you are building a 64 bit omniORB.

No. PYTHON needs to be set to the Python EXECUTABLE. The .exe, not the
directory it is in.

Is that not a hint that you need to give it a command to run, not a
directory?
