I remember. I was working on libbonobo2 and stuck at an error during  
IDL compilation
from ORBit2, then decided it was an orbit-thing and updated ORBit2 to  
the latest
version including 64 bit but it didn't help. On compilation I get

Any ideas of what is going on there? Everything is checked into GAR at
   pkg/libbonobo2
