Summary: assertion failed in dutil\strutil.cpp 1056

Initial Comment:
During install/uninstall of a package that installs a
web site into IIS, I get a failed assertion dialog for
src\dutil\strutil.cpp 1056.
I'm using WiX 2.0.3309.0.

Click ignore allows the install to proceed but leaves
IIS broken (it serves up "Service Unavailable" pages).

Uninstalling the package pops up the same assertion dialog.

This issue seems intermittent, because a similar
package installed the day before on that box installed
and uninstalled just fine.  Perhaps something bad is
being left behind by the uninstall?

A second attempt to install the package give the same
assertion; clicking retry allows it to install and
apparently configures IIS correctly.

In addition, attempting to install the package on Win2k
fails with the friendly error message:

Failed to schedule install of IIS Web Service Extensions.
