If you have it installed on your VM, can you copy the installation
over to F8 and patch it?  Some applications copy easily (e.g. Google
Earth can just copy the installation directory over), some can be a
little entertaining to copy over (Crossover for example has menu items
to set up).  If its not obvious what to copy, then create a new user
on your VM, so you have a pretty much empty directory) and install as
that user.  Everything the installation does must be in that user's
directory.
