Marc, I just ran this on a 7.6 database with all the forms compressed and it works fine. I think you've got other issues. Have you done an unload/reload lately? You might also make sure you have the latest and greatest plugin RBL. Mine may not be the latest but they are dated 7/1/2009.
Hope this helps.
