Yes, it's always Ryan's fault. =)

You might want to hold the 'sorcery' spell, though I don't know if that'll
work. Otherwise, switch to the 'testing' grimoire, then no worries until
all the bugs are worked out. :)

It has been reported to, and no fix (though recompiling/reconfiguring
VMWare _might_ fix it, I have not heard that it does).
