Anaconda 13.21.195 mistakenly creating two physical volume groups

Hi All,
I'm attempting to do a install of CentOS 6.4 and anaconda is doing some
weird things with my partitions. It's creating my volume group and a
test_vg volume group too.
I'm running the install through cobbler 2.4.0-1 (latest version) and the
system being installed is a kvm guest with a 8GB disk. Both are x86_64 arch.
Here's the partitioning I'm requesting via the kickstart:
# Partition clearing information
zerombr
clearpart --all --initlabel
partition /boot --fstype ext4 --size=512 --asprimary
partition pv.2 --grow --size=1 --asprimary
volgroup OS_VOL --pesize=4096 pv.2
logvol / --fstype ext4 --name=lv_root --vgname=OS_VOL --size=1024
logvol swap --name=lvSwap --vgname=OS_VOL --size=512
logvol /var --fstype ext4 --name=lv_var --vgname=OS_VOL --size=1024
logvol /var/log --fstype ext4 --name=lv_var_log --vgname=OS_VOL --size=1024
logvol /var/log/audit --fstype ext4 --name=lv_audit --vgname=OS_VOL
--size=512
logvol /home --fstype ext4 --name=lv_home --vgname=OS_VOL --size=1024
logvol /tmp --fstype ext4 --name=lv_tmp --vgname=OS_VOL --size=768
Anaconda is reporting errors about there not being enough space for the
requested partitions. When I switch to vc 2 and run pvdisplay I see
*two* physical volume groups!

Has anyone seen this before?
