Details

Currently, we're forced to call xpidl twice - once to generate a c++ header, and once to generate a typelib.  This requires parsing each IDL file twice and is wasteful.  It should be possible to emit both files at the same time.

Let's say we're not going to fix this.

Why not? This seems like it could be a nice build-speed win.
