A backtrace would help: see section 1.4, "Feedback", in the Org manual,
particularly the section "How to create a useful backtrace."

o What version of org are you using?
o Does adding (require 'org-list) to your .emacs after you load org-mode
  itself help? It should not be necessary, but that's where the variable
  is initially defined.
o A backtrace would help :-)
