I've seen this once before but I can't remember where. There is a 
missing handler in the current implementation of the revCommon library, 
if I remember right. For now, try putting this into your stack script:

function revPaletteObjects
  return empty
end revPaletteObjects

I think this works. It shouldn't affect your stack or table fields, 
because it is just making a call to an IDE handler that your standalone 
shouldn't need.

This fix is for Rev 2.8. I haven't investigated the error you mention 
for 2.7.4.
