I can't reproduce this on either the HEAD or on a 1.2 checkout
with Zope 2.5.1.  The template there is trying to figure out
whether to build a link around the element name being displayed,
and I can't see why it would choke as you report.

Try deleting the 'portal_metadata' tool and re-adding it (select
"CMF Default Tool" from the add list).
