The database schema changed considerably between 1.4.x and 1.5. You shouldn't expect user mods written for 1.5 which access the DB to work on a 1.4 installation.

Thanks, I figured that was the issue. Is there a detailed listing of changes for the schema located anywhere online?

It's somewhere on the mediawiki site.

A summary from before the changes were made: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Proposed_Database_Schema_Changes/October_2004

The final version is slightly different; text.old_id is no longer mapped to rev_id, but to a separate rev_text_id, and inverse_timestamp is gone. Some other tables have also changed; see the definitionis in maintenance/tables.sql for more details.
