Compile problem with compiler 4.130

Hi all. Just installed new compiler version 4.130 and immediately ran into a problem. When I try to compile a program (that compiles and works with version 4.122), I get the following error:

Option Invalid No PLL

This is for a PIC18F4682 and it certainly has a PLL. Here is the offending line of code:

Thanks PCM Programmer. I had seen a similar thread but not so complete, but did not want to jump to that conclusion. It seems that all that is needed is to change "oscillator" to "crystal". I did that and the program now compiles without error. Have not yet tried it though.

To me, using crystal makes more sense, since we are not using an actual external oscillator. But I reviewed all the changes between version 4.122 and 4.130 and I did not see anything in there about abandoning the word 'oscillator'. As a note to any CCS personnel reading this - It would be nice if you informed us!
