Jeremy --
FYI, I think I've also seen this problem, or something similar,
but ONLY on a Nehalem box (and only intermittently), not on my
Core 2 Duo boxen. The
Nehalem box is an SDP so I had assumed that it was something
to do with that, but maybe not. Maybe some feature is
"leaking through" to the guest. Hyperthreading? MSI? EPT?
Anyway, if you have a newer box, you might try reproducing
on that, rather than your usual development box (which IIRC
was a Core 2 Duo laptop?)
