Yes it does.  I had to wait to update the build with the latest version due
to other technical reasons, but after installing the latest version,
everything worked right off the bat.  I tested with several modules and all
the DLLs were registered.

I also made a test installation package where I install 1 DLL and I
monitored my application to see if the DLL was indeed registered.  It
worked.  I did a before scenario where I basically unregistered the DLL, ran
the application and saw that it complained about the missing the DLL, then I
installed the test package with the DLL in question, and the application
worked.

So yeah...I tried to be as thorough as possible as releasing a non-working
package is out of the question for me.  I definitely have a lot of
confidence in Heat.
