Error 1639 on Japanese upgrade (1639 を返しました。)
I have an installation that raises an error 1639 (Invalid command line argument. For more information about command-line help, Windows Installer SDK for more information please.) as soon as the progress dialog appears ( or just as the uninstall of the previouse installer starts )
This only happens during an upgrade on Japanese W2k3 when the installer is running with the Japanese local. If the selected install language is something else such as English or French the install(upgrade) runs fine
At first I thought it had to do with a custom action, but looking at the log files of both Japanese and non-Japanese installs, I notice the following:

Im at a loss as to why this error would happen at this point and what could possibly be causing it.
Any sugestions?

Oddly enough, I found that upgrading to MSI 4.5 resolved the issue (the OS originally came with 3.1). Still don't understand how 4.5 fixes this issue, but it does.
