Partition name for "(null)" could not be located

I'm getting the above error while following the instructions on http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-tab-2-7-0-p3110-root-clockworkmod-recovery-96473/

I've tried the Arch Linux 1.4 Heimdall package and also building the source from github, both result in similar errors:

(note: serial number appears to contain tab character)

The usb and partition error messages appear partially uninitialized, but beneath the text window are displayed as USB error -7 and 'Partition name for "pit" could not be located'.

I believe this to be fixed in the following commit:
ebbc3e7

However, the commit is part of a work in progress, so I need to make at least one more commit before you can properly build on anything other than Windows.
