Never mind... Problem located. Yes, I *had* flipped the bozo bit... Big time!
When I finally did a completely clean build today things suddenly started working... So I poked around in the "bad" msi file I still had available. The username, domain and password were all getting set correctly by the UI. Unfortunately, between that point and the time the services were installed the domain had been modified (by an action from a referenced WixLib where I had been trying something, then taken it back out, but apparently failed to rebuild the WixLib). What is even more embarrassing is that the proof was all there in the verbose log file, but because I "knew" I'd taken it out I didn't even look for it. Sorry for increasing the "noise" level on here. Thanks for the assistance!
