NullPointerExceptions in empty ResultSets

i just upgraded to the latest jdbc driver and am now getting errors in empty
ResultSets (i.e. the sql select returned 0 rows) where i used to not get an
error. here are some examples:

java.lang.NullPointerException at
org.postgresql.jdbc2.ResultSet.beforeFirst(ResultSet.java:876)

java.lang.NullPointerException at
org.postgresql.jdbc2.ResultSet.last(ResultSet.java:1133)

please let me know if this is an error and if so:

1. how do i work around it for now
2. when can i have a new version of the jdbc jar file?
