I don't have an example document at hand. Have you tried to define
\toclevel@xchapter by saying

\providecommand*{\toclevel@xchapter}{0}%

Does that a) make the warning disappear and b) give the desired output
in the pdf file?

Anyway, I have contacted the author of hyperref.sty, in whose directory
minitoc-hyper.sty is distributed on CTAN, wether he feels responsible.

Have you noticed that minitoc.sty has version number v34 (in
tetex-2.0.2), whereas minitoc-hyper only v28href? Also, hyperref has
evolved a lot since then. Have you tried wether minitoc-hyper is still
necessary at all?

Bye, Frank

P.S. Please keep the bug adress in the Cc, thank you
