It is possible that any particular pull from the git repo will get you
a buggy version - so when I said it's not a bug, I should have said:
it's not a bug with the version that I tested at the time. That's
reason #357 for *always* reporting the org version one is using.

With that caveat stated, if the steps above don't resolve the problem,
then it might be a bug in org, but, given the history of problems with
mixed installs[fn:1], it behooves one to make sure that one's install does
*not* have that problem: locate-library is your friend.

And, fwiw, I don't see the problem with Org-mode version 7.7
(release_7.7.617.gb1f2).

Footnotes:

[fn:1] ... assuming I have not misinterpreted the underlying cause of
       Michael Bach's problem in the thread that Kenny Myers quoted, of
       course.
