Yes. I want outVariant to be unmodified in the case of error. But that
might be wrong. Even if I pass pVar into IPropertyBag_RemoteRead_Proxy,
i have to take care of leaking, I think, as RemoteRead takes the variant
pointer as an out-only parameter, so I would have to VariantClear
outVariant before. But you are right that this might be the better
solution.

Thanks for reviewing my patches.
