Ok, a couple of (semi-)answers:
        * the idl fiels are *NOT* corba idl files, but instead UNO idl
          files. there is a difference
        * the urd files are generated from the idl files, but in turn, the
          urd files aer merged into .rdb files. There is a thing called
          binary type library that is needed and used during run time,
          please take a look at the udk.openoffice.org website for a
          description. The final part of merging is (iirc) done in the
          drafts module.
        * Additionaly, header files corresponding to the idl files are
          generated from the merged database (applicat.rdb) in the offuh
          module. This is a lot of header files corresponding to various
          interfaces provided by various components implemented by various
          parts of the codebase.

This is a part of the codebase that does not play all the nicely with the
overly naive assumptions made by the gnu packaging/build tools.
