[O] org-mode no longer picking up scheduled tasks when upgraded to 8.0.3 |

I use org-mode all the time and find it invaluable. I recently upgraded my ubuntu environment to 13.04 and emacs 24.2.1 came with it. org-mode was working fine within it out of the box except it failed with "Symbol's function definition is void: org-defvaralias" when I restarted the machine this morning.
Not finding much on google I decided to upgrade org-mode to the latest release so I added
(require 'package)
(unless package-archive-contents ;; Refresh the packages descriptions
(package-refresh-contents))
(setq package-load-list '(all)) ;; List of packages to load
(unless (package-installed-p 'org) ;; Make sure the Org package is
(package-install 'org)) ;; installed, install it if not
(package-initialize) ;; Initialize & Install Package
Now my agenda is completely blank with no tasks displaying at all (they also fail to display in the other views).
A message "org-agenda-skip: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil" appears when I try to recalculate the agenda view.
I know that something is now failing in one of my org files because if I reset org-agenda-files to a simple test file it works. However, I have literally dozens of org files, some of which are many thousands of lines long because I use them for client documentation. They were working fine in the previous version of org-mode.
Another, possibly related issue is that when emacs opens and the agenda is calculated, the test file buffer is marked as changed when it is not changed.
Is there some way I can easily narrow down the issue or perhaps restore the robustness of the previous org-mode version?
