Problem with taxonomy component after enabling patterns_examples

Hello everyone,

After a fresh installation of patterns and enabling patterns_examples, the following output is return in the main page:

    Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in _taxonomy_patterns_prepare_term() (line 290 of /home/drozas/workspace/p-sandbox-3/sites/all/modules/custom/patterns/patterns_components/components/taxonomy.inc).

Please find attached screenshot at http://drupal.org/files/patterns_fresh_install_bug.png

It seems the problem is due to the system and taxonomy components. The same issue happens with the latest code at https://github.com/QScience/Patterns
I will create a branch of the code at github, take a look at it and provide a patch with the solution to be committed to drupal.org if everything is ok.

Cheers,

David
