Hmm. DISP_E_TYPEMISMATCH. That narrows the problem down a bit, the
offending function is likely to be ITypeInfo_fnInvoke in
dlls/oleaut32/typelib.c or its callees.

If you want to capture debug output from Point2Play, I think you
currently have to do something like

$ Point2Play 2>/tmp/install.log

and create an icon in Point2Play to launch the installer, then configure
that icon to use the "+seh,+relay,+ole,+typelib" debug channels, and
then start it. Then the output should get into /tmp/install.log.

But I suppose you could also do command-line, at least until we can
sufficiently beat up our Point2Play developer into making debugging
easier.

$ winex3 -debugmsg +seh,+relay,+ole,+typelib setup.exe 2>/tmp/install.log

Then look for the 80020005 code in the log and see what leads to it...
