I have done many experiments trying to get this to work, but keep coming up
with the same problems.  I tried creating a dummy component with the website
info and referencing that, same result.  I tried actually nesting underneath
a component with the website settings and the ConfigureIfExists flag set to
'no' and still same result.  No matter what I do, the virtual directory
always ends up under the default stopped website, rather than my started
website.  It looks like I might have to whip up a quick VBScript custom
action in the mean time to get this accomplished.  I'll go ahead and create
a bug for this.
