[plt-scheme] untyped/dispatch broken contract?

Hi there,

The required-core-version field in Dispatch (the one that tells you  
what version of PLT you need) isn't quite correct. You actually need  
at least version 4.1.3.8(ish) for these new versions of Dispatch to run.

This is basically my fault. I got the version wrong when I uploaded  
Dispatch 1.7. In my own defence, though, when I tried to update the  
package metadata I discovered that PLaneT only lets you specify the  
first three digits of the version number.

Anyway. You should be able to fix things by updating to the latest SVN  
version of PLT. The only file that actually matters is:

     <PLT-HOME>/collects/web-server/dispatchers/dispatch-servlets.ss

You can try doing an "svn up" on just that file to test things out.  
Or, if you're not running out of SVN, you can try swapping in the  
attached copy of the file:

Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.
