Ah, I see! It now works (see below).

Hmm, I had some problems with autogen.sh. After getting a brand new
version of libtool I still have to append the contents of a file
libtool.m4 to e.g. acinclude.m4 in the orbitcpp-path, but well ...
ORBIT_LIBS indeed is now defined correctly.

Ok.

You're so right - I moved the entry in ld.so.conf to the top of the file
and it had no effect. So back to LD_LIBRARY_PATH ...

Thank's for your help - I hope installing two different versions
of the same library will get more convinient some day ...
You did a great job an CORBA::Any by the way. I'm working on
CORBA-support for libsigc++ - should soon be finisched.
Martin.
