Summary: Calls from VBScript clobber passed args

Initial Comment:
I'm using Python 2.4.0 and VBScript under ASP on IIS 5. If I call a 
Python function from VBScript AND pass a local var as the first 
parameter AND don't use the return value, then the local var I 
passed in is, upon the function's return, set to Null.

If I store the return value (even if there isn't one) OR pass the return 
value to another function, this doesn't happen. I'm attaching some 
snippets that demonstrate and work around the bug.
