I'll bite. Long time ago I deployed a COM ATL Win32 service. Com Extraction
wasn't working and there was an ugly race condition between SelfReg and
StartService that would blow chunks. We had to insert a delay to allow the
registation to complete before attempting to start the service.
The real fix came later when COM extraction techniques were improved that
allowed us to get rid of the offending SelfReg.
Still, troubleshooting this was a pain and we went through several rounds of
refactoring to get from "just call a CA to handle it all" to use MSI the way it
was intended.
