It is a problem on the Rock side. We actually very rarely (which is to
say "almost never") put plain types on ports, and therefore it is a case
that I did not test for. Especially since, in ROS, I needed to integrate
boxed types properly (a pain).

I am fixing oroGen in that respect (build all before pushing) and will
tell the ML when I can listen to your example script
