If the COM interface's v-table layout changed, I think you would only
see the problem when using early binding (while referencing an version
of the old type library, or an old version of the IDL, depending on
language).

The testCOM.js script looks like it is using late binding, so it will
be looking up all the methods etc. by name at runtime (via IDispatch)
without making assumptions about the v-table layout, and won't mind if
the v-table changes.

Jozsef, which language are you calling the COM object from?
