Please see #29 for more details.

The problem is in _ExecuteMethodAsGeoprocessingTool of ArcToolbox.py, which assumes that the value attribute of an arcpy.Parameter object always returns an instance of a base Python type, when in fact it can return an arcpy object, which will be wrapped with _ArcGISObjectWrapper. It should account for this and obtain the instance of the base Python type that is expected according to the argument's metadata.
