Yeah, I should've announced those changes. Sorry about that.

I'm working on making the necessary changes again *right now*... This  
time, I'm trying to do that without relying on the new defined() and  
value_of() functions, so that Trac will continue to work with  
previous 0.4dev versions, so that people can keep using pre r510  
Genshi versions, and not see any breakage during the transition.
