Great! I've fixed the order of the files. The problem, I suspect, was not the order of the files (they did appear in reverse order as the document suggested), but that the manifest.000 file did not come first, a clear bug.
I'm inclined not to change the version number gratuitously, since it's worked until now. Is 3.0.0-5.9.9 the version number that Microsoft's tools generate? If I do change the max version number to 5.9.9, what happens when version 6.0 comes out? Will all the existing CABs marked as max 5.9.9 stop working? Cheers!
