Hi,

I copied over a stdole32.tlb, the error is still there. The two
(builtin/native) traces however show a difference:

With builtin stdole32.tlb:

000b:trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnGetRefTypeInfo typeinfo in imported typelib that isn't already loaded
000b:trace:ole:WINE_StringFromCLSID 0x77eaa254->{00020430-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

000b:trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnGetRefTypeInfo (0x77ed2828) hreftype 0x0000 loaded FAILURE (0x7df4b8)
000b:err:ole:_get_funcdesc Did not find a typeinfo for reftype 0?
000b:err:ole:PSFacBuf_CreateProxy GetFuncDesc 80029c4a should not fail here.

With native stdole32.tlb:

000b:trace:ole:ITypeInfo_fnGetRefTypeInfo typeinfo in imported typelib that isn't already loaded
000b:trace:ole:WINE_StringFromCLSID 0x77eb4454->{00020430-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}

000b:trace:ole:ITypeLib2_Constructor_SLTG 0x7e8702b0, TLB length = 4240
000b:trace:ole:ITypeLib2_Constructor_SLTG header:

and a bit further in the log (err/warn not present for builtin, most
likely because the builtin doesn't get this far):

000b:warn:ole:I_RpcReceive bad packet type 116
000b:trace:ole:RPCRT4_CloseBinding (Binding == ^0x7f305238)
000b:trace:ole:RPCRT4_DestroyConnection connection: 0x7e714248
000b:trace:ole:RPCRT4_CloseConnection (Connection == ^0x7e714248)
000b:trace:ole:RpcChannelBuffer_SendReceive -- 0x800706c0
000b:err:ole:xCall RpcChannelBuffer SendReceive failed, 800706c0

Cheers,

Paul.
