Issues with Moodle 2.4 (beta)

[vaughany]

On the grounds that on the Moodle.org plugins page it says this block is available for Moodle 2.4, we installed this into the latest 2.4 beta code, and found the following issues. We are running build 20121116.

The following message is seen 11 times (one for each section plus the head section?):

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$numsections in /srv/moodle/blocks/course_menu/block_course_menu.php on line 602

...and also the following:

The block course_menu does not define the standard capability block/course_menu:addinstance
