Yes. Unstable versions are here for bugs tracking

Strange...
This was the behaviour of the 1.3.3 and now works on my local install !
Could you take a look at your koha_error log file ? the error is hidden 
there :-)
(type in a console, as root, on your webserver : tail -f 
/var/log/httpd/koha_error.log The exact name of the file depends on your 
linux distro and your koha install)

Yes, someone else reported this.
It's the polish translator that made some mistakes. We reverted back to 
english most of them, but missed this one :-)
