AFAIK, a COM reference doesn't have a bitness, it's just a type library GUID (see above). The bitness only comes into play when creating a component (a 64-bit process will lookup and create a 64-bit component, and vice versa for 32-bit). What do you mean by a x64/x86 reference, and how would the host OS bitness affect adding a reference?
