We're waiting for NETFX 5.0 and MSI 6.0 or later when Microsoft fixes the underlying issues in their APIs.

Re: [WiX-users] Heat with file path longer than 260 chars report an error
Have not at all tried this, and it may not work or cause all other kinds of issues... But judging from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365247(v=VS.85).aspx , you could try prefixing the fully qualified path with \\?\ The Windows API has many functions that also have Unicode versions to permit an extended-length path for a maximum total path length of 32,767 characters. This type of path is composed of components separated by backslashes, each up to the value returned in the lpMaximumComponentLength parameter of the GetVolumeInformation function (this value is commonly 255 characters). To specify an extended-length path, use the \\?\ prefix.
