wix toolset: Success page showing multiple headers

Question

I'm using the HyperlinkTheme.xml from the WiX 3 github site, with WiX v3.9 R2 to create my installer. When I run my installer, it succeeds, but on the success page it shows all 4 headers overlaying each other (SuccessHeader, SuccessInstallHeader, SuccessRepairHeader, SuccessUninstallHeader). I changed the Y values so they wouldn't display on top of each other:

enter image description here

How do I get it to only show only the pertinent header?

Here is my slightly altered version of HyperlinkTheme.xml:

Here's how I build the installer:

"%WIXDIR%\light.exe" "obj\bundle.wixobj" -out "%BUILDDIR%\out\mc.exe" -ext WixBalExtension

The theme from GitHub is from the develop branch and has changes from WiX v3.10 that the WixStdBA from v3.9 R2 doesn't know about. You can grab the v3.9 version from wix39-debug.zip on the v3.9 R2 release page.

Thanks! I should have thought of that. I imagine I can get to the same thing by selecting the wix39r2 branch on github? Or is there a reason I should use the wix39-debug.zip instead? – David Burson Mar 23 '15 at 21:24
Usually, we don't have a branch for each version, just a tag. wix39r2 is an exception, as we needed a branch for cherry-picking. So yes, getting the file from wix39r2 is fine. – Bob Arnson Mar 23 '15 at 22:59
