MountV agent failures on Windows

I'm surprised no-one else has posted, but since 5.0 for Windows has come out we had problems with MountV resources offlining unexpectedly. Symantec support had us do plenty of logging and VxExplorer-ing, and discovered it was that the MountV agent was crashing and then VCS assumes the resources have faulted.
We've had the MountV combo patch installed (a collection of about 6 patches), but still get failures on one node (though it may be a different issue).
I was wondering if anyone else here has been affected by this? Or are there no VCS users on Windows here? Or are ther, but no-one's had a problem?
I was told by Support that not only were others having this problem, but also that I was the first to report it!

    The silence is deafening...
    We still get the occassional MountV failure problem, though it's not as common as before the combo patch. We'll soon see whether Rollup Patch 1 cures the problem or not...
