--- Comment #2 from bennylin <[email protected]> ---
I had the same error and stumbled here. I've downloaded MW 1.21.0rc5, and
started to export few templates from id.wp (notably string manipulations), but
received the error. I've installed all the bundled extensions (minus two) plus
the Scribunto extension.

Disregarding the effect on what I was trying to do, I concluded that from now
on, people cannot (easily) export and import some very useful templates from
the WMF projects that uses Scribunto to be used on previous installations of
MW, thus making lives harder for some people who have to upgrade their sites.
Please point me if the effect of Scribunto on non-WMF installations has been
discussed and weighed before, because now I think that the way the Wikipedia
templates have been used (exported/imported) should not have been "overwritten"
with Scribunto (Modules) scripts...

The second thing is, Scribunto should be included in the bundled extensions
from now on, because it's become integral part of how complex templates are
handled in Wikipedia and other projects. (heck, there should be a list of
"core" templates in the future releases!)
