I have a Wix installer that includes the following lines in the .wxs to get
the VS 2008 SP1 CRT merge modules into it:
<DirectoryRef Id="TARGETDIR"><Merge Id="VCRedist" SourceFile="C:\Program
Files\Common Files\Merge Modules\Microsoft_VC90_CRT_x86.msm" DiskId="1"
Language="0"/></DirectoryRef>
<MergeRef Id="VCRedist"/>
(I tried putting the Merge in the Directory, and the MergeRef in a seperate
Feature and I tried adding the policy merge module too, none of that made
any difference.)
And it seems to work as expected on WinXP and Win2000, but not on
Vista or Windows7.
On Vista and Windows7 I get a 2902 error and the MSI log looks like:

Anyone have any idea what is going on?
I have even tried to use a MSDN incident but havn't been able to convince
Microsoft that it even might be an issue with the merge modules or MSI.
