That shows that you have a 64 bit Python, but that you are trying to
compile omniORB in 32 bit mode. You probably intend to compile omniORB
as 64 bit, so the problem is that your environment is wrong and is
picking up the wrong variant of the Visual C++ compiler.

Did you use the "Visual Studio Command Prompt" start menu item to set
up the environment?  If so, you probably chose the "x86" variant rather
than the "x64" version.
