what version of the plugin are you using?  the most recent one (0.7)
should have fixed lots of errors like that (in fact, that file no longer
contains the code you are referring to.  PLEASE get the most recent
version before posting bugs).  also, you're always better off using the
gmane mailing list archives rather than source forge's.
