OK, I got the same problem with the files you sent. I've committed and uploaded a new version that reverses the change, so @value is expanded at the time of writing again. Undefined @value's, when used in index entries, should not cause failures, either. It's quite possible that there is some combination that breaks, but it seems to work better for the files I tried.
