[plt-scheme] 299.408 help-desk and old planet libraries

I just downloaded the 299.408 release candidate and notice the following
problem:

Start DrScheme.
Start Help Desk.
Search for anything.

The following happens:

DrScheme Internal Error
exception raised by exception handler: continuation application:
attempted to cross a continuation barrier; original exception raised:
/home/dvanhorn/.plt-scheme/planet/300/cache/schematics/schemeunit.plt/1/1/compiled/info.zo:
read (compiled): code compiled for version 299.106, not 299.408

Removing the 300 directory in planet and restarting DrScheme fixes the
problem.  (Surely having old planet libraries shouldn't crash the Help
Desk, right?)
