+        * rules.tao.GNU,tao/Makefile: don't include the Interface
+          repository by default on pre-2.8 g++ platforms, and on
+          cross-compile platforms.  g++ 2.7.2.3 on Solaris can't
+          compile tao/InterfaceC.cpp.  By removing it, by default,
+          on cross-compile platforms, we reduce the size of libTAO.a
+          by 420 Kb.

-	* TAO_IDL/be/be_visitor_union/cdr_op_ci.cpp:
-	  There is a generated boolean variable called

-	  to an implicit default value, the operator will just
-	  exit with a value of 0 and the (de)marshal will fail.
-	  Thanks to Anthony Shipman <als@aaii.oz.au> for
-	  pointing this out and suggesting a fix (initialize
-	  the result variable to 1).

-
-	* tao/Servant_Base.{i,cpp} (_create_stub): The implementation for
-	  Local_ServantBase should always returns 0 because a null stub is
-	  now used to identify locality constraint object reference.  This
-	  method can potentially be removed and we can always create
-	  locality constraint object with a null stub.  However, I decided
-	  to keep this method around so we can simplify Policy objects
-	  which can be either be locality constraint or regular in TAO.

+          skeletons, and the use of null stubs for locality constraint
+          object reference.  Otherwise, proper exceptions will be thrown.
+
+        * tao/ORB.cpp (object_to_string): We should throw an
+          CORBA::MARSHAL exception if a user tries to externalize a
+          locality constraint object.  Notice that I don't know how to
+          pass an exception out of the overloaded << operator.

+          support DII.

+          determine equivalency for locality constraint object reference.
+
+          (_hash): Throw an NO_IMPLEMENT exception if the objref is locality
+          constraint.  Quite frankly, I don't really know how to implement
+          this function for locality constraint objects.
+
+        * tao/Servant_Base.{i,cpp} (_create_stub): The implementation for
+          Local_ServantBase should always returns 0 because a null stub is
+          now used to identify locality constraint object reference.  This
+          method can potentially be removed and we can always create
+          locality constraint object with a null stub.  However, I decided
+          to keep this method around so we can simplify Policy objects
+          which can be either be locality constraint or regular in TAO.
