Hi Graham, sorry you're having an XNest problem. While your symptoms may seem identical to the original bug report, since the original bug report was verified as fixed, my guess would be you're seeing an unrelated bug that just happens to fail in a similar fashion. HAL is no longer present in Maverick so you wouldn't be getting an identical error message.
In fact XNEST is largely deprecated in favor of Xephyr. I would recommend using xephyr instead.
