I ran into this recently, what's going on is the feed class is trying to find
a blog slug object with get_object() that matches 'latest', when you define
get_object(). If you use something like this with a valid slug, your feed
will work fine.
http://mysite.com/feeds/latest/some-cool-blog-item/
Removing get_object() from the feed class, then it will work with this url:
http://mysite.com/feeds/latest/
