Well I reckon credit goes partly to the google translation feature (though it did mis-translate some parts). Anyway, my pidgin German tells me that this error is due to mixing different versions of the compile tools.

If you use the XP-Cagey custom build of Merl's tools, make sure that you use ALL the XP-Cagey tools. Don't try to mix them with standard Zoner's or Merl tools (and certainly not with the original tools).

In general, it's wise to avoid mixing any two sets of compile tools. The author will probably assume that you are using all of his tools.

I had this error before and it was caused by having two clip brushes in exactly the same place.
