Well, if you manually do a snapshot, there's a checkbox which is usually 
checked to snapshot the VMs memory.

I guess when VEEAM does a backup, it doesn't snapshot the memory and 
thus the bug never triggers.

I asked about this on stable a while back, too and got this answer.

Not sure about migrations. I haven't had any problems.
