Widl outputting vtable slot number mismatch errors when a local function
is present without a remote function being present also. But if I might
take a guess from my last experiences here: This is a widl bug that
should be fixed...

How does that work? ppwszString is a NULL-pointer-terminated array of
strings. Does the [string] flag work for pointer arrays too? MSDN
doesn't say so.
