Problem using xCHM

Is anyone using the xCHM build 0.9.8 with any success? I have been using xCHM 0.9.7 for a while now and it works great. I updated to the 0.9.8 build provided by Guru ( http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/index.php ) and it stops working - it starts up fine, but when I try to load any CHM I just get a handy dandy blank page. I've reverted back to 0.9.7... Just wondering if anyone else is using 0.9.8 with any success... C.
