[tex4ht] Error in processing file with references

[Kristian Debrabant]

One reason could be that your biblatex.4ht version is not suitable for the 
version of biblatex you use. For example, for biblatex0.9d, biblatex.4ht 
from September26, 2010 is needed, see, e.g., the discussion in 
http://tug.org/pipermail/tex4ht/2010q3/000195.html. The version on CTAN 
seems still to be from 2008.

Best regards

Kristian
