As an experiment, I replaced the org-mode from git with the debian
org-mode package version 7.8.11 and tried creating the table again.
This time, no errors. Apparently something happened between 7.8.11 and
7.9.11 to make this happen even with emacs 23.x systems.

Hi Jude:
This happens using gnu-emacs 23.41 and org 7.9.11 and that emacs is
the current debian package version. I used git clone to install and
update org mode too.
Maybe it is a mixed installation problem again. Have you tried the
suggestions here:

| Good
| Org-mode version 7.8.11 (release_7.8.11-448-g1737d3 @

| Bad
| Org-mode version 6.33x (release_7.8.11.409.ga3778)
