I'm also getting these errors when, for example, I try to render the
Forrest 0.4 docs with CVS Forrest.  This might require a Cocoon upgrade
to fix.

In the meanwhile, which codebase are you trying to render, and what's
wrong with Forrest 0.4?  Forrest 0.5 is going to be
backwards-incompatible for sites that have a custom sitemap, so it's best
to stick to 0.4 for as long as possible.  We can do a 0.4.1 release if
there's any bugs you need fixed.
