   Tomi,

   I am assuming you are using the development version. Please update to the latest version with the Subversion by saying:

   svn update

   in the installation directory (or do a new 'svn export' if you did not use 'svn checkout').

   This error is our (read my) fault. I should have spotted this. Sorry. Thanks for pointing it out.
