       Well, I'm certain that the duplicate records patch is
contributing to the failure (the fact that the return value is a list
is a dead give away).

     However I suspect the root cause of the problem is that you are
overriding the 2.2 bbdb-search-simple.  

     Is is possible you have a local copy of bbdb-search-simple?  

     If so you need to be aware that the return value from
'bbdb-gethash' is now a list of records rather than an individual
record (this would of course be the whole point of the patch, to allow
multiple records to hash to a single value).

BTW: While bbdb-allow-duplicates will turn on all the input filters
     for duplicate record detection that were required for the proper
     operation of 2.00.06 (and are no longer required).  The flag does
     not revert the internal data structures to the way they were in
     2.00.06.  I seriously considered doing this but the result would
     have been a very messy and would be likely to lead to a whole
     series of bugs cropping up only when duplicate records were
     involved.
