Thank you for pointing out my typo. Once that is fixed I still get the same
result. To answer Simon's questions:
1) I have both in the installation. This allows me to "test" things
like editing the XML without affecting the "real" configuration file.
2) The full blown configuration file is based on a debug build. For a
release build I want to remove the diagnostic section "on install". It seems
easier to start with a debug configuration file and trim out the sections
not needed or desired in a release build than adding in those sections for a
debug build. Just a choice.
So now the syntax looks like:
<XmlConfig Id="ConsoleAppConfig14" Action="delete"
ElementPath='//configuration/system.diagnostics'
File="[CONSOLEINSTALLDIR]app.Config" Node="element" On="install"
Sequence="14" VerifyPath='New' />
Thanks again.

I'm sure this isn't your problem but.
Shouldn't the ElementPath value have an A in it (system.diagnostics)

Nb. I don't actually know anything about xmlconfig, just pointing out things
that seemed strange
1) is the configuration *still* called app.config and not foo.exe.config?
2) "delete" on "install" seems strange

My XmlConfig does not seem to work. It doesn't delete the section or the
whole node. I don't get a warning or an error. Just what was supposed to be
deleted is not. This is the XmlConfig line that I am using:
<XmlConfig Id="ConsoleAppConfig14" Action ="delete"
ElementPath='//configuration/system.dignostics'
File="[CONSOLEINSTALLDIR]app.Config" Node="element" On="install" Sequence
="14" VerifyPath='New' />
Is this syntax correct? Is it possible that in replacing the wix.targets
file with an earlier version that it could have caused this command to
silently fail?
Thank you for your patience.

There's a difference in either your project file or the WiX MSBuild project.
I've never used the WiX v2 MSBuild support so I can't offer any advice on
it. I'd start by verifying that everything works as you'd expect from a
simple command-line build.
