I prepared packages for 3.8.0 the day it was released, but held off
uploading until it had been out a few days.  This is a good thing
because an ABI incompatibility was introduced by mistake.  Upstream
has already corrected the error and was supposed to release 3.8.1, but
they have not done so yet.  I have a patch that corrects the error and
makes 3.8.0 compatible with 3.7.4 and the upcoming 3.8.1.  If 3.8.1
has not been released by this weekend, I will go ahead and upload a
patched 3.8.0 that is binary compatible with earlier and later
releases.  (I almost posted a bug report myself in case anyone was
wondering.)  Thanks for the report!  You won't have to wait long for a
resolution. :-)
