No problem! I'll open a bug report on source forge.
To get around the problem for now I have created the com+ application as a
separate feature which I don't include in a reinstall:
<Feature Id="ComPlusApps" Level="1" Title="ComPlusApps" AllowAdvertise="yes"
Absent="allow" Description="Com Plus Applications"
InstallDefault="followParent" Display="hidden">
<!--Don't create com+ apps on reinstall-->
<Condition Level="0">REINSTALL</Condition>
</Feature>
