This bug is fixed in last release.  I strongly recommend to use the 0.2
release.  After that release we have some minor bug fixes that you can grab
via github's master branch.  If you'r new to git, please read Chapter 3 of
Git Community Book (http://book.git-scm.com/) which explains the basic
branching and merging.  As we and other users discover bugs we push the
fixes on the master branch on github.  My workflow with Marss is like for
every project I create a new branch and all the bug fixes are done onto
'master' branch. Then I do a 'git merge master' to patch my project code.
 With this model you dont have to publish anything related to your project
and still you can use git for your code management.
