I'm experimenting with starterkit on a new machine and have run into a
bug in org-mode elpa version 20121231.

With the stock distribution org-mode (7.8.11) in emacs 24.2 there is no
problem.  With the elpa version 20121231 I get an error, see the
attached output from emacs --debug-init.

It's not clear to me why the condition is failing in
org-babel-strip-protective-commas.  This works properly in 7.8.11. It
shouldn't be taking the path that leads to org-strip-protective-commas.

The environment is the unmodified git repository for the
emacs24-starter-kit, and this error is from the first #+begin_src
emacs-lisp in the personalized startup file.  

This work is on a new machine.  It doesn't have the org-mode git
repository readily available.  If there is an easy way to get
intermediate versions from elpa I can try those relatively easily to
isolate the change that triggers this error better.

For now the workaround is to revert the org-mode package, get the
startups the way I want them, and then re-activate the org-mode
package.
