Windows appears to have its own set of internal interfaces, e.g.
{000c101c-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} "Msi install server". We actually
have an IDL for these in msi.dll, since evidently some program tries to
create one. But these interfaces are all internal; we don't even know
the vtbls. It would appear that this approach would be close enough to
replicating that one.
