[sdiy] Buchla 266 Integrator question

I'm trying to get the integrator (slewer) from the Buchla 266 (see
http://www.takeonetech.de/buchi/magnus/synths/companies/buchla/Buchla_2660_4
_200.jpg) working. For the most part it works, but it oscillates at a very
high frequency at the output. Looking at the schematic, I can't for the
life of me figure out why. I replaced the 3080 with another.... no
change.... Just for kicks, replaced it with a TL071 (leaving pin 5 out of
the socket) and the oscillation stopped... Could it be that the expo
converter is misbehaving? Nothing like a bad circuit to bring on a case of
tourette's...
I also noticed that as drawn, the circuit could not handle a VCO's CV input.
I had to add a 1K resistor at the output before it would drive anything
other than a scope probe.
Any thoughts?
