I just did the same on a test installation within VirtualBox - fresh RIS 
setup with Slipstreamed SP3. Upgrade path of the RIS image:
- Original Windows XP SP1 german (did not try EN yet)
- Slipstreamed SP2
- Slipstreamed various patches
- Slipstreamed SP3

I did not re-create the image from scratch, just additionally 
slipstreamed SP3. I heard that in some cases omitting the installation 
of SP2 causes problems with some applications

Then I installed WPKG Client 1.2.1 (final) and it worked without any 
problem.

When looking at your log it seems that thre is a problem to read from 
the temporary Installer location. Quite strange.

Did anyone else run some tests?
