This isn't fixed, but…

This was apparently due to my definition of a default network
(172.27.0.0/24) on the "any physical interface" using NAT. Once
I removed this network, I could create test machines.

This may or may not be due to the fact that one of my interfaces
is slave to a bridge (eth0 slaves to the "wan" bridge). However, in
the interfaces dropdown of the network creation dialog, only eth0
shows up.
