merge module serviceinstall table not merging

I have two merge module projects and a sample installation. merge module A installs one service, and merge module B installs another service and also starts and stops the service on install/uninstall. everything in the serviceinstall and servicecontrol tables in both of the merge modules look good, but when the consuming installer runs, it never even tries to install ServiceB, although it does try to start this service (which was not installed.) It does install ServiceA, but doesn't do anything about ServiceB. Why might this be the case?

okay, i opened the build .msi file, and both entries have been properly merged into the ServiceInstall table, yet the ServiceInstall action doesn't do ANYTHING with the one of the entries!!!

Any ideas?
