sphinx.sty incompatible with Texlive (Sphinx SVN)

r66916 in Sphinx SVN apparently broke Latex builds: the following
error occurs:

$ make all-pdf
...
(/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/plain/misc/pdfcolor.tex)
! Extra \fi.
l.62 \fi\fi

? 
! Emergency stop.
l.62 \fi\fi

!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

The offending line is line 62 in sphinx.sty, this part:

 57 % XeLaTeX can do colors, too
 58 \IfFileExists{ifxetex.sty}{\RequirePackage{ifxetex}}{}
 59 \ifx\ifxetex\undefined\else\ifxetex
 60   \def\py@NormalColor{\color[rgb]{0.0,0.0,0.0}}
 61   \def\py@TitleColor{\color{TitleColor}}
 62 \fi\fi

Removing the second \fi on line 62 fixed the problem for me.
I'm using Texlive (2007, as shipped with Ubuntu intrepid).

This should already have been fixed in r66968.

I see this with r66969. (Sorry, forgot to mention this.)
Bisection search shows that the first revision that fails for me is r66916.

However, installing the texlive-xetex package on Ubuntu (Intrepid) fixes this issue.
This package contains eg. ifxetex.sty
