Looks like a bug to me -- I'll pass a possible fix along to TC.
The problem is that when the Choice object is initialized, it expects
at least one item in the choice list. This is clearly a Wrong Thing.
There are two workarounds:
1) Initialize your choice list with fl_addto_choice() or one
if its ilk before you call fl_show_form(), or
2) Clear the choice list with fl_clear_choice() before calling
fl_show_form().

BTW: my logs show better than 20 downloads a day on the new FTP server
<ftp://ncmir.ucsd.edu/pub/xforms> since the switchover. It looks as
if XForms is alive and well!
I believe we are converging on a version 1.0 release Real Soon Now and
that release will more than likely be Open Source for all you source
lovers. :-)
