Not likely to happen.

There is an alternative. You can get the latest VB Win32 TypeLibraries from:

http://www.themandelbrotset.com/Technical/Typelib.asp

Then use BindCOM (http://www.adapower.com/gnatcom) to compile the type
libraries in to bindings to Win32.

This will not generate a complete binding to Win32, but a huge portion of
it.

You also need to make a small change in the generated bindings do to a bug
in them.

You need to move:

   type FOLDERSETTINGS is
     new  u_MIDLuu_MIDL_itf_win_0057_0004;

after the implementation of u_MIDLuu_MIDL_itf_win_0057_0004 and then
everything should compile.

It's not perfect but should serve most needs.
