We found that the only changes needed were to (occasionally) use some 
preprocessor tests for the version of ACE around the #includes of 
ACE/TAO headers in our code due to header refactoring. Those changes are 
pretty obvious when your code will not compile, and afaicr there is very 
little which needs to change other than that. If you do the version 
checks rather than just changing the #include line, then your code will 
compile and run with both 1.2 and 1.4.
