Hey Bob,

This wasn't during patch creation. I built a language-neutral MSI,  
followed by a localized MSI, then attempted to create a (language)  
transform between the two. Same build instance, same toolset all around.

The installer sources and build tools (batch files) have remained  
constant during the WiX version change.

I'm assuming your firewall change wouldn't have affected the  
RadioButton schema. I don't see why Text would now have a length of 0.
