The Wine IDL compiler is here (it is standard Unix code):
http://cvs.winehq.org/cvsweb/wine/tools/widl/
The DCE/RPC implementation is here (it is Win32 code):
http://cvs.winehq.org/cvsweb/wine/dlls/rpcrt4/
The DCOM part should be shared between rpcrt4 and ole32, but we haven't 
done the ole32 part yet. Don't worry about that much for the moment, 
Mike Hearn and I will get to it in due course.
