Thanks, John. I think the problem lies with the #+title: option. If it's present, as in the short example below, then I get the
error. If not, it seems to work ok.

+------------test.org------
#+title: Here's a document title

* NOTE h1

* TODO h1 also

** NOTE h2

* Another subtree

Here's some stuff I want to export to HTML.
