[OpenAFS] 1.4.0 rc5 msi upgrade

I have created a modified .msi file (vs using a transform) for 1.4.0 rc5
and invoke msiexec like this to perform an upgrade:

msiexec.exe /fvomus %FILES%\openafs-en_US-1-4-RC5.msi /l*v
%TEMP%\openafs.txt

The installer runs but does not upgrade anything.  Adding /qf to get the
full user interface, I see that there are no components selected (i.e.
Client, Server, etc.) so I suppose that is why nothing got upgraded.
When I select the proper components the upgrade runs properly.

The changes I made to the .msi look straightforward enough.  Is this a
bug in the openafs mis setup, in my changes, or am I invoking misexec
incorrectly or...?
