Hmmm.... I use Sparkle from an app embedded in the prefPane. The install process first quits System Preferences, the prefpane is replaced and System prefs is relaunched. I suppose if the quit fails for some reason it could cause something similar. I have never seen this bug here, but the prefpane is being moved/replaced - although SystemPrefs should have quit during this time. Thanks for the insight.
