Job exception: undefined method `name' for an instance of String

There is an error related to the rss-polling plugin. It happens when the polling starts, but not always. Maybe a race condition type of problem? I believe you need several feeds (say five or more) to reproduce it.

Job exception: undefined methodname’ for an instance of String`

The logs.

I reported it on RSS Polling plugin removes tags added manually - #2 by icaria36 when I thought it was related to another problem (it wasn’t related). I thought maybe the problem would go away but it keeps coming and we have +11.000 recurrences as of now.
