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.
