'interoperate' and 'work with' are not the same.
What the gcc docs refer to is the fact that there were
ABI changes requiring all C++ code that 'interoperates',
i.e. is running in the same address space to be compiled
with the same compiler.

So all C++ libraries you link with have to be compiled
with the same compiler. That doesn't affect C code, nor
anything else such as your favorit (source code) editor.

It basically means you have to recompile omniORB.
