I don't run anything on local hyper-v anymore, but I do run a ot of 
stuff in Azure, and we havent seen anything like this. I track STABLE 
for things though, updating after reading the commits and testing 
locally for a week or so, so the version I am running currently is 
r320175, which was part of 11.1-BETA2. I am going to upgrade to a more 
recent STABLE sometime this weke or next though, will do that on a test 
amchine and let you now how it goes.

I seem to recall that there were some large changes to the hn code in 
August to add virtual function support. When does 11.1-p1 date from ?
