Problems with 8.2 custom ICommand

We have a dll that implements a few custom ICommand's. It works great with DeskSite 6.0-8.0. But yesterday I installed DeskSite 8.2 to test, and the whole thing comes crashing down. I'm still trying to figure out the cause of the crash, but it looks like passing a string to IContextItems::Item() causes the problem. I'm still investigating this.

I've noticed that Interwoven has changed a couple of AttributeIDs in the typelibs, is there anything else that they might have changed (in violation of all that COM programmers hold dear to thier hearts)?

Does anyone else have a custom command that crashes with 8.2, but works in earlier versions?

Would you send in your ICommand project and I'll take a look at it. Please include a registry dump of your progid as well.

I found the problem. It was not with WorkSite, but in our code. The memory layout of the COM proxy objects changed, which exposed a bug in our stuff.
