=======================================================
Compatibility - or "how can I make this change myself?"
=======================================================
This hotfix will be incompatible with any other mod that alters the def_item_recipes.xml file. If you want to use this fix, but also use another mod that tweaks recipes in whatever way, you can easily apply it yourself by following these steps:

Skip the installation instructions given above, and instead navigate to the altered def_item_recipes.xml file you already have (that you got from installing whatever other mod you are using). Open it up using a simple text program, such as Notepad, and search for the keyword 'Argentia.' A few lines below your search result, you will find four lines specifying a series of alchemical ingredients; Vitriol, Aether, Rebis, Caelum.

This series is an exact duplicate of the ingredients required for the Healing Concoction you must brew in the Tutorial, so you need to tweak them a little bit to make it possible for you to once again craft the Whirl oil (which in this file is referred to as Argentia, as I said). The easiest and most fair way to do this, that I found, is to simply change 'Caelum' to instead read 'Vitriol.' This will alter the recipe to require an extra piece of Vitriol instead of the Caelum, and this combination is - as far as I can tell - not conflicting with any other existing (vanilla) recipe.

Done!
