How do you request the hotfix?

Let me be clear that there is, as of yet, no hotfix available from MS for this issue. I did formally request one be made available, however. I called 800-936-5800, and used one of my MSDN support incidents to request a technical support issue. If it results in my getting a hotfix, I believe I will not be charged for my incident. If you do not have MSDN, I believe you might have to pony up the $250 charge on your credit card before you are granted an audience with a tech. Same refund-if-hotfix policy should apply here, however. I tried the workaround, by the way -- the rebuild of the runtime libraries failed midway through. I've reported this. Stewart

Thank you for your prompt and extremely helpful response.

I've formally requested a hot-fix from Microsoft, opening a technical support issue with a case #, etc. In the meantime I will probably be forced to attempt the workaround, but I strongly encourage anyone else out there who is affected by the bug to also file a formal hotfix request as well.
