Hi,
thanks for the info. I tried to reproduce the error but failed, which means, in the meantime org 3.5.1 works. Note, however, that it's no longer the same git-reversion. When I first stumbled upon it, it was org-version 3.5.1 and the then latest pull from the git-server. Since it basically made all of org unsusable ("RETURN" did not work any longer), I decided to ``go back in time'' and git-pulled an earlier version (namely the one git-labeled "release 3.5"). Now, in order to reproduce the error (and try the patch), I pulled the now latest one, and the ``41-error'' does _not_ show up. I also applied to small patch (because the 2 lines you pointed at do appear in the org-element.el file), but that does not lead to an immediately visible change (but as said, the error was gone already). Unfortunately, I don't know which exact revision it was that showed that problem ---I think in the meantime I did not also update emacs itself---, but if it disappeared in the now latest version, I am content as well.
