Umpf, well, another problem.

Indeed.

babel and the babel interface has been unchanged for many many years,
but now we have new maintainers and finally development is going on,
bringing babel to work with new (unicode) engines etc. My guess
is as before, one of the dblatex files tried to patch some routines
in babel in a non-standard way, which simply broke.

Well, it is a programming language *and* typesetting language ;-) But yes,
it it tough.
All the best
