installation issues #42

Hi. I followed the instructions on your site to install Racket 6.1.1 and Pollen on OSX Yosemite. The result of the command 'raco pkg install pollen' was initially good, but it ended in a review of errors that are making the simple "Hello World" programs fail on my machine. Below, I am pasting the error report from the installation of Pollen.

Thanks for the report. I made a change to one of the underlying packages today (sugar) and didn’t notice that error. I’ve pushed a fix. If you do raco pkg update --update-deps pollen you’ll get the update & all should be well.
