(The issue actually came up several times that I can remember.)
I think the issue basically boiled down to some registry key pointing at the original location of the MSI -- apparently Windows Installer service isn't clever enough to stop looking for it and proceed with the uninstall if the MSI was on a disk that is no longer available?

Cleaning the registry with CCleaner would fix the problem.
