What I was trying to do therefore was to author one <Component> to install the dll to an arbitrary location on the file system and run installutil on it there, then a second <Component> to install the dll to the GAC . Should deferred custom actions be able to use the assemblies I have installed to the file system?

As both the GACing of the assembly and running InstallUtil on the same assembly using the above WiX source code works fine when only one operation is carried out independently, I can only assume it is some kind of sequencing issue.

Correct. Assemblies are installed to the GAC after InstallFinalize so deferred custom actions can't use those assemblies. The best solution is to figure out what the assembly is doing to install the perf counters and replace it with stock MSI functionality.
