Right. From the logs, the installer appears to open the package, do some
actions and whatnot with it, close it, and then call MsiInstallProduct().
Somewhere there's a leak, so that the package doesn't get properly freed the
first time, and so the custom action named pipe is never closed, so when
MsiInstallProduct() attempts to run another custom action, CreateNamedPipe()
fails.

Tracking down the leak will be difficult, since we don't trace MSI object
lifecycle.
