Is there any way to make the HintPath a fully qualified path? Perhaps
something along these lines?
<ItemGroup>
<Ext Include="..\..\path\to\ext.dll"/>
<WixExtension Include="Ext">
<HintPath>%(Ext.FullPath)</HintPath>
<Name>Ext</Name>
</WixExtension>
</ItemGroup>

It was loading the wrong version. The problem seems to be that candle
doesn't use relative paths with -ext, so it ends up reading the file
from the WiX bin folder. If you specify a fully qualified path it works.
Visual Studio sets the path to a relative path (e.g. -ext
WixFirewallExtension.dll) and so it fails.
I can't seem to find any way to force Visual Studio to load the correct
file.

The assembly version is unchanged, because they're backward compatible.
I suspect Candle is loading the 3.0 version; try FusLogVw to verify.
