franzk@netal.com: [Python-bugs-list] Memory exception in python15.dll when calling IActi veScript::AddTypeLib (PR#76)

[mhammond@skippinet.com.au]

This was only just reported to me!  It is definately a bug in the
Active Scripting implementation, so I guess it doesnt belong in the
bugs list.  If you did decide to make a seperate category for the
Windows extensions I would be happy to word it appropriately, but Im
not sure it makes sense for my bugs to go there...

Mark.
