Error when using dolfin-convert: 'MeshEditor' object has no attribute 'init_vertices_global.

Question

I am drawing a 2D mesh with different domains in gmsh, defining the different domains as physical surfaces. I mesh the domains and save the mesh as an .msh file and then use dolfin-convert to generate an .xml file readable by fenics. If i only tag domains, i.e., Physical surfaces, it works fine, but if i attempt to tag boundaries as Physical lines and then convert using dolfin-convert, i get the following error:

AttributeError: 'MeshEditor' object has no attribute 'init_vertices_global'

What could be the problem?

Here is a simple example of a circle containing 13 points that reproduce the error. When running "python dolfin-convert.py circle.msh circl.xml" on the circle.msh file given below, the error appears. Could someone run the example and see if the get the same error?
