You cannot build a single MSI that deploys both the 32-bit and 64-bit
version of the driver. As you discovered, you can only use one of the
difxapp libraries in your build. This is due to the fact that the
underlying SetupAPI calls in DIFx are not "thunked" in WOW64 (see here:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/E/7/7E7662CF-CBEA-470B-A97E-CE7CE0D98DC2/32-64bit_install.docx),
so the libraries must be made architecture-specific.

One thing that I think you may be able to do (and I would love someone to
jump in and confirm this, as I'm actually also trying to deploy both a
32-bit and 64-bit driver) is to generate two separate MSI installers, and
then use torch to create a transform (essentially a diff) against the
32-bit installer. Embed the transform into the 32-bit installer, and then
use a bootstrapper to conditionally apply the transform based on the
architecture.
