Turns out I was being a bit pessimistic. I've fixed this in CVS so that 
the C++ ORB ref counting stuff does a better job of talking to the C ORB 
ref counting. If you check out and build the latest version of orbitcpp 
in CVS, it should allow your program to run unchanged. Anonymous CVS is 
sometimes behind, you have the latest version if the ChangeLog includes 
the following entry:

2004-05-26 Bowie Owens <bowie owens csiro au>
       * test/cpp/any/simple/client.cc
       * test/cpp/arrays/simple_types/client.cc
       * test/cpp/arrays/simple_types/server.cc
       * test/cpp/helloworld/client.cc
       * test/cpp/helloworld/server.cc
       * test/cpp/poa/client.cc
       * test/cpp/poa/server.cc
       * test/cpp/sequences/atomic_types/client.cc
       * test/cpp/sequences/atomic_types/server.cc:
       Switch from ORB_ptr to ORB_var and rely on automatic destroy
       of ORB.

       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/orbitcpp_orb.cc
       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/orbitcpp_orb.h
       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/orbitcpp_poa.cc:
       Change init_level rather than object reference count when
       _duplicate'ing and release'ing ORB's.

       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/orbitcpp.h
       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/Makefile.am
       * orbitcpp/orb-cpp/orbitcpp_var_smartptr.h:
       Removed deprecated code.

       * test/cpp/helloworld/client.cc:
       Clean up ORB using destroy() and don't leak any references.
