Error generating WebHelp/WebHelpPlus output in Flare v4.2

[David Schor]

Well, I just disabled the option "Auto-reimport before 'Generate Output'". I
was then able to generate the WebHelpPlus output.
Apparently, the error below does not prevent me from importing source files
but it does stop everything when the import is included with the output
generation.
Still, I don't like that error message.
