	Yes, you can't use PortableServer::POA::activate_object_with_id with
the RootPOA because the the RootPOA has the SYSTEM_ID policy which means
the POA *must* generate the Object Ids. See 11.3.7.4 (Id Assignment
Policy) and 11.3.8.16 (activate_object_with_id).

	So, really you should be using plain old POA::activate(). However,
because the RootPOA has the IMPLICIT_ACTIVATION policy you don't
actually need to explicitly activate the servant. The POA:activate* line
can just be removed.

Good Luck,
Mark.
