I found the solution for this. I was using the older svn repository, and bitbake is now being maintained using the git repository, which has a  newer version.

Switching to the git version of the bitbake repository helped remove the error, and the build has now commenced! :-)

$ git clone git://git.openembedded.org/bitbake.git
$ cd bitbake
$ git checkout -b 1.8 --track origin/1.8
$ cd ..

Best regards,
