Yes I stumbled on the same problem last week, while trying to upgrade a 
4.1 to a 4.2 install. However I had upgraded other installs previously 
and not encountered some problem.

I din't have time to dig into the bug at the time, but I think the 
problem comes from the fact that the variables was written once with 
double quotes and now is looked for with single quotes and is not 
recognised anymore. Hence you get both a ["SYS"]["compat_version"] and a 
['SYS']['compat_version'].

Cheers
