Do we know what is causing this term to make the simulation unstable?
Is it numerical instabilities? I spent a few minutes with the latest
unstable source code trying to reproduce the problem with no success.
If someone would be so kind as to send me a source code sample that
blows up, I'll wrap it up as a unit test so we can start
investigating.

Thanks!

Jason
