Erm... That could be bad. Why was that done?

The ORBit-C++ compiler backend is written in C++, so it would at least
introduce the dependency on a C++ compiler and runtime. The current
version of ORBit-C++ also provides a C++ mapping of the CORBA spec, so
there is a library to provide the POA, some operations on Anys, sequences
and so on, as well as a CosNaming library.
