[Zope] AttributeError: _v_blocks

Hi!  I am having a problem with Zope after upgrading to v2.4.0, and I am not
exactly sure when it started to crop up...  but I am getting AttributeError
exceptions whenever I attempt to Add or View any of the following objects:

Accelerated HTTP Cache Manager
External Method
Mail Host
RAM Cache Manager
Script (Python)
Site Access Rule
SiteRoot
Virtual Host Monster
Vocabulary
Z SQL Method
Z Catalog
Zope Tutorial

Other objects add/view/manage just fine.  For each of these AttributeError
exceptions, I get a similar stack trace where it choked in line 241 in
python/App/special_dtml.py (see below).

Does this error look obvious to anybody?  For what it is worth, I may not
have upgraded correctly.  I know I have fiddled with permission settings
after running ./install  (docs recommend not to launch as root, but I run it
on port 80); and I also just copied the Data.fs* files from my prior
Zope-2.3 tree into my Zope-2.4 tree... without running any type of converter
utility on it.  Finally, I installed the ZPT products (Page Templates,
ZTUtils, TAL) latest version I think.

Any ideas?

Mike
