Summary: error CNDL0206 when TARGET Directory Name is SOURCEDIR

Initial Comment:
Using:

Microsoft (R) Windows Installer Xml Compiler version 
3.0.2015.0

The Directory element is:

<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SOURCEDIR">

The error:

C:\proj\wixtest\wixtest.wxs(17) : error CNDL0206 : 
The 'TARGETDIR' directory has an illegal DefaultDir 
value of 'tqepgrb4|SOURCEDIR'.  The DefaultDir value 
is created from the *Name attributes of the Directory 
element.  The TARGETDIR directory is a special 
directory which must have its Name attribute set 
to 'SourceDir' or 'SOURCEDIR'.

If I change SOURCEDIR to SourceDir it works. So either 
there's a problem with handling both cases or the 
error text is wrong.

SDK:

SourceDir Property
The SourceDir property is the root directory that contains 
the source cabinet file or the source file tree of the 
installation package. This value is used for directory 
resolution.

So the error text seams to be wrong. Wise uses SOURCEDIR, 
but they have been wrong before.
