This code

<Fragment>
  <PropertyRef Id="WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS" />

  <Component Id="Permissions" Guid="84A2983C-B86D-4F1F-B89B-CEE84221FF02" Directory="Foo" SharedDllRefCount="no" KeyPath="no">
    <CreateFolder>
      <util:PermissionEx User="[WIX_ACCOUNT_ADMINISTRATORS]" GenericAll="yes"/>
      <Permission User="Operator" GenericAll="no" />
    </CreateFolder>
  </Component>
</Fragment>

works inside a WiX Setup Project but not from inside a WiX Merge Module Project. When using this code inside a merge module, a user "BUILTIN" gets the permissions and not the administrators group.
