The code for this fixme is slightly broken, it really failed to convert
the left side, and doesn't tell us which vt it is trying to convert from.
If you built from source could you apply the attached patch to
dlls/oleaut32/variant.c, re-build, re-run your program and post the
updated output?

Thanks.
