I'll answer my own question.
The solution turns out to be not using the Win2003 Platform SDK patching
exe and Patchwiz.dll but to use the same items from the Microsoft
Windows SDK for Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0 here!

Subject: [WiX-users] Failed to create patch. error code:0x34
Folks,
I'm getting the above error which translates into, "The range offset in
the RetainOffsets field in the FamilyFileRanges Table
<http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368575.aspx> is invalid." ,
I think.
Again, I think this means that the Patch Sequence - sequence attribute
is wrong but I don't know why. Has anyone got a hint for me?
