Thanks for the help - it seems that your patch works fine. At least I
just
successfully build omniORB2 with egcs-971008 configured with
--enable-shared
--with-gnu-ld. The only problem was with multiple defined symbol
_mutex_global_np
in pthread.h (native linker ignores multiple defined symbols; this
symbol is not
defined as extern - this looks like IBM bug).

Andrey.
