Then there is a bug in the compiler.  That is the only explanation.

Not true.  Everything that begins with "_di_" is a typedef for the
DelphiInterface wrapper, which is most certainly a full class, complete with
constructor and destructor and all of that.

The counter is incremented automatically when the interface is returned by
RegisterViewer().  You do not need to increment it yourself at all.  If you
do, then it will not be decremented properly, and the memory for the
interface will leak since the counter never falls to 0.
