I dunno.   If you want to track it down and find out what's really going 
on it should be easy to grep for the error message, run tla under gdb, 
set some breakpoints, and figure out how you got there (if not apparent 
from static inspection).   I mean I know you know you can do all that -- 
I'm just adding the information that, at this late date, that's probably 
your best bet, sadly.

A guess?  I dunno.  Perhaps its bitrot.  Andy has been quite gracefully 
and generously maintaining the grounds of Arch but they have, more or 
less, long lain fallow, afaict.   Sorry you're finding troubles with it 
but it's (with all due respect to Andy and his caretaking) largely a 
long-dead project.
