Luckily, you didn't try and use ORBit-0.5.12. As of right now, it doesn't
work, primarily because we workaround a bug in ORBit using an evil hack
:-) -- and I'm working on it, but it's not very easy (will probably
require changes to ORBit).

(The gist of it is that ORBit needs a way of checking if the servant is
already active during poa.c:*activate_object() without relying on the
_private member of the PortableServant. This could be done by checking on
a hash, but there doesn't seem to be one I can use *sigh* )

Take care,
