Summary: PyCom_PyObjectFromVariant won't convert VT_VARIANT

Initial Comment:
Any attempts to use the function PyCom_PyObjectFromVariant with an input variant of type VT_VARIANT will fail with "E_OUTOFMEMORY."

Should this function recurse until it finds a different variant type underneath?

IDispEventSimpleImpl clients from ATL will handle this case correctly, does that mean this is a bug :-)?
