I'm afraid at the moment it is not possible. In the first case the com
method fills the path value into an [out] parameter of the method,
which is discarded by the C function com_invoke. One possibility would
if the [out] parameters (or all of them) are attached as an attribute to
the return value. It requires the maintainer work.
In the second case the type of the returned variant is VT_RECORD (36)
which is not handled by rscproxy, again maintainer work is required.

I am trying to replicate this Python/win32com code to access MiKTeX
using R/rcom:
http://codeliberates.blogspot.com/2008/06/automating-miktex-using-python-win32com.html
Is this possible using rcom? How? See my attempt below.
Python/win32com:
import win32com.client as w
c = w.Dispatch("MiKTeX.Session")
path = ''
print c.FindFile("xunicode.sty", path)
(True, u'C:\\Program Files\\MiKTeX 2.7\\tex\\xelatex\\xunicode\\xunicode.sty')
print c.GetMiKTeXSetupInfo().installRoot
C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.7
R/rcom:
library(rcom)
mik <- comCreateObject("MiKTeX.Session")
path <- ""
comInvoke(mik, "FindFile", "xunicode.sty", "path")
[1] TRUE
comInvoke(mik, "FindFile", "xunicode.sty", path)
[1] TRUE
info <- comInvoke(mik, "GetMiKTeXSetupInfo")
info
NULL
