VS2005 Merge Module creating 'Module Retargetable Folder'

An issue that I thought was resolved has come back.

I'm trying to include a VS2005 merge module into an installer (currently an uncompressed exe project). When I run the installer, I get the merge module retargetable directory created explicitly:
c:\\Program Files\\New Project\\Module Retargetable Folderand the assemblies installed into this sub-directory - this is not what I want.

With Installshield, I can set the merge module property to eliminate this issue (yes, I saw it there as well). Is there a work around for this?

Also oddly, the install appeared to be working correctly until this morning - I changed nothing in the merge module (just rebuilt it). Currently, it's the default project with a few project settings and the merge module. I've also tried recreating the entire install with a default InstallAware .Net project with a recreated merge module - with the same results.

I have tried just about everything I can think of, and nothing is working. Please help!
