Thanks, at first it did not seem to work as the calling app did have failures
and they did not cause the install to fail, but then we had another error that
did fail the install.
So we figured that some returns were not a complete failure and therefore the
return did not cause an install failur
Any text written by the app (both stdout and stderr) is written to the log, and
any non-zero exit code is interpreted as a failure causing CAQuietExec to also
return a failure.

Thanks... Much appreciated. I also found the Msix64 property, which I think
might be a cleaner solution for my purposes.
