No, I don't think it does stop working, although it seems so ;-) It is difficult to test inproc (DLL) com servers implemented in Python with Python as the exe client. There is no isolation between the client and the server - both use the same interpreter. What you see is probably a flaw in the ctypes.com server implementation - it redirects sys.stdout/sys.stderr to somewhere else (look into ctypes\com\server.py). You should either use different Python versions for the client and the server, or use normal Python for one and a debug compiled Python for the other, or - maybe that's the best and easiest - use an EXE COM server for testing. Since the exe server is a separate process, the isolation is perfect.
