This would be great info to add to the bug report, it might help track 
down the issue. I don't doubt there's a problem.

I mentioned in the tech support conversation that I had seen the same 
dialog as well during a build, but in one single stack only. In my case, 
when I clicked "OK" the build contined normally and didn't cause any 
problems. In Steve's case, the build aborts.

What it looks like is that the SB is building the stack and then for 
some reason cannot write the revised standalone stack to disk (or maybe 
an error prevents the script from continuing.) The SB aborts, the 
duplicate stack with its extra dialogs remains in RAM, and the error 
message appears.

As soon as the team can reproduce it, they will probably be able to fix 
it pretty quickly. The problem is seeing where in the Standalone Builder 
the error is occuring, which no one has been able to do yet.
