why doesn't oafd register OD and AC on startup?

[Jaka Mocnik <jaka mocnik kiss uni-lj si>]

Yes, why? Is there a deeper reason that I don't know about? ;)

Imagine the following scenario: an oafd is spawned on by some process,
not via liboaf that would register it immediately, liboaf is then used
from another process to activate an object or register a server or sth.
like that. As the AC and OD provided by the already spawned oafd are not
registered yet (no calls to liboaf that would register them were made),
the second process spawns its own oafd via liboaf. This way you have two
oafds running instead of one.

The attached patch solves this problem. is it OK to commit it?

regards,
	jaKa
