    The iwsorbutil.jar is not part of ORBbase jar that comes with interim SDK fixpack. It is an ORB extension file that comes packaged with other extension files  inside of WebSphere FixPack. So during upgrade WAS installation dropped these extension files including iwsorbutil.jar into the JDK directory. The ORBbase jar packaged inside of interim SDK packages does not contain it. So upgrading the interim SDK package does not provide this ORB extension file or remove the old jar file. If the file is missing, the best way to get it back is to apply the latest WebSphere Fix package.
