[WiX-users] WiX Suppress ICE Validation When Using MSBUILD At The Commandline

Hi everyone I've got a Visual Studio solution that contains two WiX Projects. In Visual Studio, I set the project properties to ignore the nearly-400 ICE30 output by light. The WiX code was written by another programmer and I don't currently have the time or the mandate to rewrite it so that it
