You can check the release notes:
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/ChangeSets

But your problem is complaining about a type error, not the message
passing infrastructure itself. This page might help you:
http://gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/page_msg_passing.html

Also, if you're changing the topic to ask these questions, please
either start a new thread or change the subject line.
