Reading their page gave me a good laugh. Didn't know about this before, and I'm glad to have learned about its existence

Vigil deleted a function. Won't that cause the functions that call it to fail?

It would seem that those functions appear to be corrupted as well. Run Vigil again and it will take care of that for you. Several invocations may be required to fully excise all bugs from your code.

Yeah. this bit got me
