[rules-users] Drools 5.1 - exception when trying to use incremental KB updates.
Just moved to Drools 5.1, using a Guvnor package as the base for a
Knowledge Base with incremental updating enabled. Our resource is a
Guvnor PKG. We encounter the following error when a snapshot is made:

The rule in question is quite straight-forward, works on the initial
load up and worked in 5.0.1 fine. It is not the rule that was just
changed. If I remove that rule, another is just substituted in its
place in the error message.
What might be causing this? If you need more information, please ask.
