Functions that return Promise seem to be converted to any in TS declarations in 1.6.20

Anybody know a fix for this?

EG:

@ExperimentalJsExport
@JsExport
fun test(): Promise<JSClient> {
    TODO()
}

@ExperimentalJsExport
@JsExport
fun useClient(): JSClient? {

compiles to

export function test(): any/* Promise<JSClient> */;
export function useClient(): Nullable<JSClient>;

theres also a plugin linked in that issue that provides a workaround for that issue and others while we wait for fixes to get into a new release
