Yep, it runs sort of...
The buttons and menus screw up, as they don't close - the screen doesn't
refresh. But you can make a render, if you know your buttons and with
some tinkering back and forth get the buttons show up - I made a test
render, but it's tricky and not very useful. And you have to launch
VP from native WB, or it will crash on startup.
