There was in fact a discussion of this problem on that (the
tex.pgf.user) mailing list in December 2006 -

Apparently, version 1.3 of pgf/generic/utilities/pgfutil-common.tex
fixes the problem. Perhaps not wise to install that without the rest of
the PGF/TikZ distribution, but I've done that here as a
semi-work-around, and the problem is indeed fixed.
