I believe it should be possible to keep the product code for minor upgrades.
Vincent has been doing that in the past IIRC. MSDN does state that major
upgrades should change ProductCode.

msi_check_publish returns a different value since your patch. Maybe we should
get rid of that check in RegisterProduct and PublishProduct.
