DISM Crash when Creating MDT Integrated Boot image

With MDT 2013 Update 1 being released, I installed it in my test environment (MDT had not been installed previously).  When I go to create a MDT boot image, I get the following error.

Started processing.

Error while importing Microsoft Deployment Toolkit Task Sequence. 

System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException: The server did not provide a meaningful reply; this might be caused by a contract mismatch, a premature session shutdown or an internal server error.

and a Windows Crash window pops up indicating the DISM Host Services Process stopped working.

I did some research on wbemcore.dll not loading and found some articles indicating to register the dll.  I tried, but was greeted with the following...

[Window Title]
RegSvr32

[Content]
The module "wbemcore.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllInstall was not found.

Make sure that "wbemcore.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again.

[OK]

Any guidance is apprec

Yes.  Win 10 ADK installed with Deployment Tools, WinPE, WICD and USMT.  I even tried repairing it.

Turns out this is a bug when running things off a SSD or fast hard drive.
