I see you are still using legacy variables here.
Please switch to {{ foo }}, which is the only option available starting in
1.6, and let us know if you still have problems.
However without seeing the source to the role, I can't tell how this is
being used.
A traceback is always worthy of a bug report -- but it looks like we will
need more information in order to reproduce the problem.
