Sub-Themes Documentation Issue

Following http://drupal.org/node/225125 I could not get the subtheme to inherit the css. The page is locked even For Me!

Here is My two info's

This would not work as documented until "version = VERSION" was removed from the child theme. This is undocumented and was only found because someone else had the EXACT problem...
