Hi,
Well ... unfortunately I was able to reproduce this.
For now, the workaround is to not select xguest.  It's not installed by
default.  I had to manually select it.  So don't manually select it and
everything should be fine.
We're investigating what the solution is.
Thanks for reporting this.
Troy
