Hey Kris,
I looked into it further and it turns out it is caused simply by
having generated.js open in an editor at the time I try to start
persevere. Close the editor and it loads fine. Sorry if you wasted any
time trying to repro - I thought I had established a pretty clean
setup to test with before posting, but didn't expect that kind of
issue =/. Hopefully someone else is helped out by this when searching
the boards.
