I'm aware about that problems, but this is Ubuntu 32 bits. Also
structures seems fine as the nsAString which is in fact being passed
to interfaces is a 4 fields record and this record is passed in the
creation and then used by the interface when called any of the
methods. All methods that are procedures work, functions do not :-? My
next test is to confirm that procedures in the interface after any
function definition works or not.

Is there any manual ASM that I can write to call the interface
function manually ? No parameter is being passed and only returns a 32
bits integer, but I do not know at all how safecall works and even
less how call an interface at all in ASM :( Check ASM generated code
is a possibility too, but the project is big and the setup code is
also quite big and the ASM output could be giant :(

That's great! :)
