Yay! That did it! I added a --hostname and it just worked, so thanks very much.
I don't think it's to do with whether a VM already exists as I have none in my 
folder and have been wiping /tmp files between each build (because it doesn't 
clean up after dying). In my case it should have nothing to clash with as I'd 
never had a successful build before! It's curious that the lack of a hostname 
should provoke an overwrite check when the --dest param deals with where the VM 
will be put.
I'll report it as a documentation bug as well since the official docs on using 
vmbuilder don't even mention the hostname property:
