Ran it again, same thing.

SuperCal is pretty badly broken.  When it hits the optional white  
balance screen, it does something horribly wrong with the color profile.

Is there any way to edit a color profile?

Maybe if I added values that appear to be missing or corrupted based  
on the fairly good color profile I already created?
