I'm the maintainer of the org-toodledo and the OP did indeed contact me 
first.

org-toodledo effectively does:

   (require 'org)

Then uses the variable org-version.  This has worked just fine for a few 
years, but when the OP upgraded to 7.9, the org-toodledo function that 
checks the org-version yields an error along the lines of variable not 
defined.

I did some googling and came across these threads which seemed relevant:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/59337
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/55412

It seems wrong to me that hacking org-toodledo is the appropriate 
solution.  As mentioned in one of the above threads, the version of a 
package is pretty fundamental and I'd expect it to be provided by the 
base require.
