Comment:

 I used the abbreviated walkthrough at
 http://www.gameboomers.com/wtcheats/pcSs/SherlockRT.htm
 Getting up that point, I too saw that Virgil didn't appear. However, it's
 really hard to say whether it's a bug or not. Given that I've previously
 completed the game back when I first implemented support for it, it may be
 fair to say that the walkthrough I used above is incomplete, and missing
 some step I did properly in my prior playthroughs.

 Luckily, the debugger commands I implemented in the game are of help for
 cases just like this; I looked up the flags associated with Virgil
 reappearing on his own, and you can trigger it by pressing Ctrl-D to open
 the on-screen debugger, and issuing the following command:
 flag 895 set

 Then go to 221B, or exit and re-enter if you're already there. Virgil
 should now appear.

 For now, I'm going to tentatively close the bug, since I can't
 definitively say for sure that it is indeed a problem or not, and I don't
 like the idea of leaving it open indefinitely.
