I'm writing a wix-based installer to replace our current (home-grown) 
installation solution.

I've got the functionality I want, but I seem to have picked up a requirement 
for mfc80loc.dll. That is, if I install using the old install scripts, our 
software runs fine. If I install using the WiX authored installer, MFC apps 
fail to run, and the event log shows errors that start with a missing 
mfc80loc.dll.

My googling of this dll leads me to believe it shouldn't be required for our 
situation - ie: we only expect to install to English language Windows boxen. 
(If this sounds draconian, please consider that at present we're installing to 
a very limited number of clients, and we know their situation very precisely).

Is there a known issue about this? Is it possible that WiX is modifying my 
system's locale information? If this is the case, it may be driven by my own 
naive use of WiX. I specify a language attribute in the "Product". Is there any 
other locale information I need to specify to install to an US/English box?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
