   * type (represented by a @c TypeCode) and a widely scoped type ID
   * (in the @c TypeCode) that are generated by any OMG-IDL compiler
   * and available through the Interface Repository.  Think of it as a
   * "globally scoped" name distinguishing each exception.
    *
    * @todo According to the OMG CORBA C++ Mapping version 1.1,
    *       the copy constructors
    *       should be moved to "protected" section in class
    *       declarations.  Since the current MS Visual C++ 7.1 compiler
    *       will cause some problems to TAO's exception mechanism, we
    *       defer doing this until we drop support for MSVC++ 7.1. Maybe
    *       there is another solution, have to test that later.
