It's been years since I did any COM, and I might be missing a nuance,
but should the method name really be GetAddrOfIIDDescriptor? I think
__declspec(uuid()) can apply to non-interface constructs as well,
typically coclasses. Singling it out as an IID might be too narrow,
even if IID and CLSID are type compatible in the C++ sense.

How about GetAddrOfUUIDDescriptor?
