PSHELL and COM Object in v27

[Joe Caverly]

This does not work in v27;

e:\utils>pshell /s "$p = new-object -com jlcutils.clsMath"

e:\utils>pshell /s "$p.ppp(8.80)"
PSHELL: System.Management.Automation.MethodException : Argument: '1' should be a System.Management.Automation.
PSReference. Use [ref].

e:\utils>ver

TCC  27.00.18 x64   Windows 10 [Version 10.0.19042.746]

...but the same thing works in v26;

e:\utils>pshell /s "$p = new-object -com jlcutils.clsMath"

e:\utils>pshell /s "$p.ppp(8.80)"
3.9952

e:\utils>ver

TCC  26.02.43 x64   Windows 10 [Version 10.0.19042.746]

I can get it to work in v27, by making a change;

e:\utils>pshell /s "$p.ppp([ref]8.80)"
3.9952

but would like to know what has changed with PSHELL between versions.

bump!

Sadly my eval version of tcc27 has expired. Hopefully theirs an answer on @pshell as it does not work as it did in previous version. So what changed
