Installation of KB938979 results in duplication of user profiles

The installation of this patch is mandatory. However, after each
installation of this patch (KB938979), it duplicates the user profiles on the
machine. All profiles work correctly, but I can't delete the duplicated
profiles. Even if I use the restore to previous image, once the patch is
installed the duplication returns.

Didn't happen here on either of my machines.
