No, I made a guess from looking at the source code.

a = EnsureDispatch('PISDKCommon.PIAsynchStatus')
a._oleobj_.QueryInterface('{ECA80073-B652-478A-B191-E87A924EB723}')

gives this error:
TypeError: There is no interface object registered that supports this IID

and if I try
a = Dispatch('PISDKCommon.PIAsynchStatus', None,
           '{ECA80073-B652-478A-B191-E87A924EB723})

I get

ImportError: No module named IPIAsynchStatus2

Stack trace as follows:   (I'm running this from IPython)

ImportError: No module named IPIAsynchStatus2

Using pdb, I find that the first two arguments for the
GenerateChildFromTypeLibSpec function call are

child = IPIAsynchStatus2
typelibInfo = ('{76A44786-EBC8-11D3-BDC5-00C04F779EB2}', 0, 1, 0)

(which is the same function call as I tried myself, previously)
