Michael,

Please let me know exactly what you need from me to reproduce this bug 
and I will get it to you. I have full admin rights and like Robert I can 
produce this failure every single time. The bug should at least be open 
needing investigation, and we are both happy to help out. Message me 
on-list or off at your convenience, I want to help out.

Also, what OS is your test server running on? For me, it is on a Linux 
RHEL6-like box.

Thanks,
Ben
