The _dice_corba_env->malloc pointer is zero, isn't it?

You could give the server-loop another dice_corba-environment,
(look at the dice parameter -fserver-parameter) that contain a malloc, 
instead of using the default one at "WOO_server_loop(0);"

Or you can take a look at the dice parameter -fforce-corba-alloc and implement
a CORBA_alloc() and CORBA_free() ...
