I suspected as much. Do you have an example of how the condition syntax
would be? I am thinking something like:

        <Component Id="IISServicesSymbols" Guid="..." DiskId="1">
        <Condition Message="Symbols are only included with debug.">
          Configuration = "Debug"
          </Condition>
          <File Id="IISFaultContractSymbols" Name="..."
LongName="...xxx.pdb" src=".../xxx.pdb"/>
        ....
       </Component>

Then under the features to install this component will be "empty" so is it
still safe to reference it?

                <Feature Id="IISHost" ...
ConfigurableDirectory="IISINSTALLDIR">
...
                        <ComponentRef Id="IISServicesSymbols"/>
                </Feature>

You don't.  A component is an atomic unit; you either get everything or
nothing.  You want to put 
the file in a separate component and condition that.
