PSTricks: Newly introduced error in package

Consider the following MWE:

documentclass{article}

usepackage{pstricks}

begin{document}

A

end{document}

It produces the error

Runaway argument?

] {pgffor.code.tex} 

! Paragraph ended before ProvidesPackageRCS@i was complete.

<to be read again> 

                   par 

l.11

How do I fix this?

The only way currently imho is to go back to an older pgf version until pstricks is fixed (I wrote the author already)

@UlrikeFischer Hi Ulrike. Thanks for the answer. Do you know where I can find an older version of PGF? :-)

You could try to replace in a local copy of pstricks.tex (you find it in tex/generic) defProvidesPackageRCS{@ifnextchar[ProvidesPackageRCS@i{ProvidesPackageRCS@i }}%$ by defProvidesPackageRCS#1{}

use pstricks.tex from http://archiv.dante.de/~herbert/texnik/tex/generic/pstricks/
or wait one or two days for the update. It has a slightly other solution.

I didn't try to make a real solution - suppressing all message are naturally not right.

There is only a problem, if someone uses a development version of pstricks.tex and an old pgf. Later it will be the same as you already suggested.
