I had a similar error the other day, running a freshly installed
299.407, except that in my case, DrScheme gave the "code compiled for
version 299.401" error on startup and refused to start, until I deleted
the the planet cache.
I often have more than one PLT installation, e.g. the current release
version and an SVN version. I notice that collections installed from
.plt files get put in version-numbered directories, like 299.401, so
there's no conflict. Perhaps Planet should do the same?
