As of FIX.4.3 on of fields from the OrderQty component block (either OrderQty 
or CashOrderQty)is now required. Prior to FIX.4.2 the OrderQty is not required. 
A previous post: http://fixprotocol.org/discuss/read/c10aec99 indicates that 
the OrderQty should be validated but the cancel remainder action should be 
performed anyway.

We made the change for a reason, I just can't remember why. It seems like 
OrderQty should not be required since the behavior of OrderCancelRequest(35=F) 
is to cancel any remaining unfilled quantity. OrderCancelRequest cannot be used 
for partial cancellations.
