UI.menu patching fails for mage kits with LEUI/EEUITweaks

Using a very minimal install of LEUI and EEUITweaks, plus Ascension:

~LEUI/LEUI.TP2~ #0 #0 // lefreut's Enhanced UI - Core component: 4.6
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2000 // Transparent Sidebars: 4.0.4
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #0 // Rewritten Final Chapter of Throne of Bhaal: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #10 // Balthazar can be redeemed: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #20 // Improved Sarevok-Player Interactions: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #30 // Improved Imoen-Player Interactions in Throne of Bhaal: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #40 // Restored Bhaalspawn Powers: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #50 // Improved Slayer Transformation: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #60 // Expanded Epilogues for Bioware NPCs -> David Gaider's expanded epilogues for Bioware NPCs: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #2300 // Sharper portraits of Abazigal and Gromnir for the Enhanced Edition, by DavidW: 2.0.26
~ASCENSION/ASCENSION.TP2~ #0 #2400 // Slightly improved cutscenes, by DavidW: 2.0.26

This produces errors like so for the new mage kits:

[./override/ui.menu] loaded, 486993 bytes
ERROR: illegal 3-byte read from offset -1 of 411-byte file INNER_PATCH_SAVE "%data%"
ERROR: [ui.menu] -> [override/ui.menu] Patching Failed (COPY) (Failure("INNER_PATCH_SAVE \"%data%\": read out of bounds"))
Stopping installation because of error.
[last message repeats 16 more times]

ERROR Installing [New wizard specializations: elemental specialists], rolling back to previous state

The error repeats for the other new mage kits.

Components I'm installing are:

./setup-dw_talents.exe --force-install-list 1500 1510 1520 2000 2500 2510 2520 20000 40000 40100 40200 40300 40310 40400 40450 40600 40610 40650 40660 40700 40800 40850 40900 40925 40950 41000 50000 50100 50200 50300 50400 50500 55000 55100 55200 55300 55400 55500 55600 55700 55800 55900 60100 60200 80000 80150 81012 81100 90100

This same install works with Dragonspear UI++, but right click on spells in either the priest or mage books will no longer show the spell description for DUI++.

The readme hopefully warns that you're very likely to run into compatibility problems if you use ToF with a nonstandard UI; I don't recommend it.

For anyone else looking to tweak aspects of the default UI in BG2EE, these components of EEUITWeaks seem to work fine with an almost full install of ToF:

~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #1070 // Faydark's Abilities Auto-Roller/GrimLefourbe's BG2 UI: 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2000 // Transparent Sidebars: 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2030 // Adul's Better Quick Loot: 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2060 // lefreut's 1.3-ish Dialog Box: 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #2900 // lefreut's Improved Record Screen: 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #3024 // Journal Fixes and Tweaks -> lefreut's Journal (quests collapsed by default): 4.0.4
~EEUITWEAKS/EEUITWEAKS.TP2~ #0 #3050 // lefreut's Improved Inventory Screen -> With Item Comparison: 4.0.4

Modifying character creation screens with EEUITweaks will lead to a malformed ui.menu file, as I can confirm, but the above seem safe enough.  Transparent Sidebars are very useful on the Steam Deck's small screen, the rest are nice to have.

The full LeUI will cause install errors for ToF.

Dragonspear UI++ will install and run.  All functionality seems to be working other than right click to view spell descriptions in the Priest and Mage Spell Books.  Unfortunate given how many spells are altered by this mod or SCS.  You can still inspect them from the spell bar on the main screen, but that's not the best place to compare spells.
