Notes

Here's an example of an IDL that would cause the problem:
struct Parameter2
{
        sequence< sequence<Parameter2> > paramlist;
};

interface test
{
        // Either one of the following usage of Parameter2 would cause a coredump on Solaris
        //void getMethod(in Parameter2 a);
        Parameter2 getMethod();
};
