First there seem to be quite a few exceptions thrown.
I get both
A first chance exception of type
'Microsoft.Tools.WindowsInstallerXml.DuplicateSymbolsException' occurred in
wix.dll
and
A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in
wix.dll

is one call stack.
The first Win32 Exception happens here:

args = {Dimensions:[0x00000008]}) + 0x37 bytes
and the debg window included this:
A first chance exception of type 'System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception'
occurred in wix.dll
Additional information: Function failed during execution
The second exception was here:

This isn't what I expected to find, as it appears there's a bug in my tab
order, but I'm surprised that it crashed with this particular error message.
When I ran this under the darice.cub that I had previously (which I admit, I
can't remember where it came from? One of the Votive downloads probably) I
got no errrors.
When I use this same cub file under Orca, I don't get an error, by the way
when I validate for either ICE23 or the entire suite.
Using the file that was shipped with Orca in the Vista SDK I got these
warnings instead:
1>C:\projects\business\artgallery\WebGalleryWx\MyUI.wxs(41,0): Warning
LGHT1076: ICE45: Row 'GallerySettingsDlg.Install' in table 'Control' has
bits set in the 'Attributes' column that are reserved. They should be 0 to
ensure compatability with future installer versions.
1>C:\Users\Tony\AppData\Local\Temp\en25arfu\WebGalleryWx.msi(0,0): Warning
LGHT1076: ICE66: Complete functionality of the Shortcut table is only
available with Windows Installer version 4.0. Your schema is 200.
So, it looks like the orca version doesn't like the shield attribute being
set. The date on the vista version is:
darice.cub 02/02/2006 644 KB (659,968 bytes)
I'm also a little worried about the shortcut table message. I assume WiX
3.0 is putting in entries that work on v4, but that no harm will come of
this.
Running the file from 120 from the vista sdk under smoke gives:
WebGalleryWx.msi
smoke.exe : error SMOK0216 : An unexpected Win32 exception with error code
0xEA occurred: More data is available
