	running this ior through ior-decode-2 doesn't trigger this
error. Because ior-decode uses CORBA::ORB::string_to_object, the error
would have been thrown if this was the reference causing the problems.

	The problem reference must come later - are you returning an
object from one of your calls? The best way to find what's going on
might be to set a breakpoint in g_log and get a backtrace from there.

	I will reduce this to a warning as well. Its not an error
condition. Could you send on more details of the other problem when
you have a chance. I fixed some issues when running between big/little
endian machines, but there may be more issues lurking.

	Madness. Sounds cool. I wouldn't mind hearing from others
about any exotic setups ORBit2 is being used in.
