Have you tried to set the files in question as key components to their own componemt and setting the component attribute to 128. this translates to msidbComponentAttributesNeverOverwrite
Per the SDK Help:
If this bit is set, the installer does not install or reinstall the component if a key path file or a key path registry entry for the component already exists. The application does register itself as a client of the component.
Use this flag only for components that are being registered by the Registry table. Do not use this flag for components registered by the AppId, Class, Extension, ProgId, MIME, and Verb tables.
